Prices

When you join WildComm, your Fieldwork Accommodation Rate isn’t just a cost – it’s a direct investment in real conservation.

Our rate is £700 per month, and we work hard to keep this as affordable as possible – comparable to what you might pay in rent at home. For many participants, joining us for three months means simply redirecting what they’d normally spend on living costs, not paying extra.

Every pound you contribute gives landowners a genuine reason to protect habitats, helping keep wild places wild, and supports fair wages for conservation professionals. You’re not just funding an experience and securing a place to stay; you’re funding the science, the people, and the landscapes that make lasting change possible. Choosing to join WildComm is choosing to be part of something bigger – a community proving that nature has value, and that together, we can shape a future where wildlife thrives.
