Location: RSPB Nene Washes + Whittlesey Office, PE7
The Nene Washes is a washland for the River Nene, in Cambridgeshire. We look after 800 hectares of the 1,522 hectare site, and it’s one of the few remaining areas of washland in the UK. In the summer, the area is mostly grassland, while come winter, much of the area is flooded, providing safe haven and foraging for thousands of birds. We use c800 cattle to keep the land in favourable condition for the thousands of birds that visit and important species such as Snipe, Black-tailed godwit and Cranes.
We require a team player to join us in maintaining the health and wellbeing of the cattle throughout the grazing season, maintaining the associated infrastructure, monitoring and managing water levels, assisting with record keeping and performing daily shepherding (including some weekend cover).
