At first glance the Colne can resemble an urban landscape, but look closer and you will find a unique and special place where town meets country. It’s a place where our work makes a tangible, lasting difference for wildlife and people.  From the internationally rare chalk streams of the Chilterns to the braided channels in the south of the Colne Valley Regional Park, the challenges are undeniably big – but so are the results as we restore rivers and actively encourage people to discover the wonderfully diverse countryside on their doorstep.

We are a creative, committed and enthusiastic organisation with a great track record of project development, fundraising and delivery, so there are always opportunities to grow and develop your role within our friendly team. For an informal chat about current job opportunities, please contact us. Find out more here: It’s working in the Colne Valley Park.
