Get your hands dirty

Gorse is a growing problem at the Giant's Causeway as it smothers delicate species. Our conservation volunteer team uses bowsaws, loppers and brute force to remove this scrub. We only have a few months a year to clear as much as we can before the birds begin to roost again.

Take a day away from the daily grind and have your staff volunteer on site. There's plenty to do like clearing gorse, bashing bracken and planting hedges.

Please email Nicola Morgan for more information.
