It may be worth listing some of the benefits we believe of taking part in practical conservation tasks:

- Learn about the site and why it is important
- Learn new practical skills
- Do something practical for conservation
- A social/network event
- Mental and physical wellbeing
- Satisfying and enjoyable experience in the fresh air
