What is Young Rangers?

Are you young and want to make a difference for nature? Do you enjoy getting outdoors whatever the weather and like the idea of helping manage our nature reserves? Young Rangers could be just what you are looking for. This great monthly volunteer session is aimed at young people, is ½ day and taking place at sites across the county.

We are currently not accepting any new applicants for the city or Skylarks programs at this time. We also no longer accept Duke of Edinburgh applicants at Attenborough.

OVER 18?

Keeping it Wild

There are ways to stay wild once you've turned 18!. Our Keeping it Wild team are all about coming together to do great things for nature.

Once you have submitted your application to become a Young Ranger, you will hear from a member of our team (usually within 7 to 14 days). When we have processed your application we'll send you some information on a month by month basis with details of what's coming up and sessions on Eventbrite for you to register for.

It is important if you are under the age of 18 that we have a signed parental consent form before you can attend.
