Who are The Conservation Volunteers?
The Conservation Volunteers (TCV), the community volunteering charity, works every day across the UK to create healthier and happier communities for everyone by connecting people and green spaces to deliver lasting outcomes for both.
They recognise that each community and the people living there have different needs. Whether improving wellbeing, conserving a well-loved outdoor space or bringing people together to promote social cohesion, combat loneliness or enhance employment prospects, TCV works together with communities to deliver practical solutions to the real-life challenges they face.
For almost 60 years they have adapted their work with volunteers to reflect the changing needs of communities in the UK and, by giving people a sense of purpose and belonging, have empowered them to take control of their lives and outdoor spaces for the benefit of all.
Whilst their activities vary, an inclusive approach has remained consistent; bringing people and places together to create happy, healthy and connected communities for everyone.
