About the event

Youth Rangers is a group for secondary-aged young people (11-17 years) keen to make a positive difference to their local environment. We meet throughout the year at various Cambridgeshire nature reserves and would love to welcome you to our group.

Please note:
Bookings are not confirmed until we have received your completed paperwork and consent form (for each child).

Join us for another fantastic session of learning real, practical conservation skills, learning from industry professionals and making a positive impact for wildlife. You do not need any experience to attend. This month we'll be joining the Wildlife Trust's West Cambs Reserves team to assist with practical habitat management at Stanground Wash in Peterborough. This is a distinct part of the Nene Washes habitat, where the grassland floods in the winter and are grazed by cattle in the summer, creating a haven for wetland wildlife. Refreshments provided (hot drink and biscuits).

Please bring water and dress appropriately for the weather - Layers and waterproofs as needed. Long sleeves and trousers are recommended. Please wear sensible boots or wellies.
