About the event

Once again we will be working alongside the Ampthill scouts to cut back gorse that has grown too large to be of any benefit to wildlife at this rare and beautiful heathland site.

Tools, refreshments and safety gloves will be provided to all those attending. It is a great chance to meet other young people interested in the natural environment, learn new skills and help the Trust to manage our reserves.

Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy boots, no experience is required just some enthusiasm and willingness to join in. Staff are on hand throughout the session and do contact us before this event if you have any queries. If you have not attended a Youth Ranger session before there is a parental permission form to complete first, please email Matt for this at:
