About the event

Are you aged between 12-17 and eager to participate in conservation efforts whilst making a positive impact to local wildlife? Join our Youth Rangers group, where we offer practical conservation activities and volunteering opportunities for teenagers. These are the perfect way to get experience in conservation whilst meeting like minded people.

We meet every 3rd Saturday of the month, 10:30am-1pm, in Northamptonshire (usually Summer Leys or Nene Wetlands).

For November's session we will be at Summer Leys, carrying out some practical conservation work, coppicing and clearing scrub.

These activities do not require a guardian to accompany, however bookings are not confirmed until we have received your completed paperwork and consent form (for each attendee).

Please wear long sleeves and trousers, as we may be working in areas with brambles. Please also bring a bottle of water.
