What’s involved?

A unique one-off volunteering opportunity at Diglis Fish Pass in Worcester. Enter the drained fish pass in waders and see it from an entirely new perspective! Take in the incredible feat of engineering from within. Roll up your sleeves and get stuck in scrubbing the gallery viewing window and LED panel. You can write your names on the dirty window and we will snap a pic for you.

What’s in it for you?

This is a special opportunity to see Diglis Fish Pass from within! You will get a real sense of satisfaction once you’ve cleaned the dirty window, used to help scientific monitoring of the fish through the fish pass, and the photo as a memento to remember this experience.

What skills are we looking for?

No prior skills are needed – just lots of energy and enthusiasm!
