About the role
The Wilder Communities Officer will inspire and support community-led action for wildlife and
empower local people to create more wildlife rich spaces on their doorstep. Working with

community action for nature, with a particular focus on rivers and wetland habitats, and
linking in with our Species Survival in Hertfordshire’s Chalk Rivers project.
Project summary – Species Recovery for Chalk Steams – Wilder
Communities
Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust has secured a grant from the Species Survival Fund, a
partnership between Defra and the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
The Species Survival Fund is enabling the Trust to deliver an ambitious restoration programme
for our chalk river and wetland habitats across 11.15km of the River Lea Catchment in
Hertfordshire. As part of the project, with additional funding, the Trust will be working in local communities to
highlight the importance of our chalk streams and wetland habitats and enabling groups and
individuals to take their own local action for wildlife.
This community organising work will initially focus on communities in and around Welwyn Garden
City and Hertford.
