About the event

Cambourne area Youth Rangers is a series of activities for secondary-age young people to attend independently. They make use of the Wildlife Trust BCN nature reserves and offices in the area between the village of Gamlingay, and Trumpington on the edge of Cambridge, with many sessions based in Cambourne. There is something most months either on a Saturday morning or on a Friday during school holidays. It might be a practical task, volunteering at an event, walk, social event, talk or workshop. These sessions are aimed at young people aged 11-17 interested in local wildlife and global environmental issues. Some activities are free. Parents are invited to join occasional sessions.

For the December session, we will do a short practical task on Cambourne Nature Reserve and then head inside for a sociable chat over pizza.  This is a chance to take action for wildlife, meet like-minded people, and contribute ideas for next year's programme.

Booking is essential because we need to have parental consent and emergency contact details
