NWT Sweet Briar Marshes - Youth practical conservation session (31 March)
Event details
About the event
This session is for 11 - 17 year olds interested in learning about what our wardens do to manage our nature reserves for wildlife. Join us to take part in some hands-on conservation tasks at NWT Sweet Briar Marshes.
Before you attend your first session, you will be sent a document with useful information and advice for volunteers, and a parental consent and personal risk assessment form, which we will need you to fill out and return to us in readiness for the session. There is no need to complete a consent form again when attending any subsequent conservation sessions, unless you need to tell us about a change in your circumstances. Further joining details will be sent during the week before the event.
