Royal Parks volunteers share what it is like to care for the London parks

If you are up for a new challenge this year and have some time to spare, the Royal Parks charity is recruiting for conservation volunteers to join its teams across London.

Even in the wet and wintry weather, there are people prepared to spend time outdoors helping others, maintaining the grounds and performing other duties of a Royal Parks volunteer.

Some volunteers share why they do it and what it is like to care for the London parks.
