We're recruiting for volunteers to help run the cycle hire offering at Wicken Fen Nature Reserve.
As part of our recruitment we are hosting a drop-in session for people interested in volunteering with cycle hire.
The drop-in session will provide a chance to meet some of the team and see the different bikes we have at Wicken Fen, as well as find out more about volunteering with cycle hire.
Volunteering with cycle hire involves renting bikes out to visitors, making sure the bikes are set correctly for the visitors.
