Experiences for Young People

Do you enjoy the natural world and being outdoors?

We have a range of experiences for young people which include opportunities and resources which are focused on the environment and helping the next generation to learn about and be inspired by the world around us. 

Suitable for those aged 16-25, our opportunities range from Duke of Edinburgh residentials and expeditions through to subsidies and scholarships.

We also support young people with developing their skills and training to help with studies and careers in the environmental sector.

Wondering what our experiences are like? We sent Anna Foster, a member of our Youth Council, to our Marine Science Camp at Dale Fort Field Centre in 2022. Watch her video here to see what she got up to.

“I was quite nervous to go on the course, but I’ve honestly had such a great experience and met some great people. I’ve learnt so much about marine life and this is great since I hope to study Biology at uni in the future.”
