Youth Rangers meeting at Cooper's Hill Nature Reserve!

We will be helping to remove bracken so that important healthland species, like heather, can thrive on this site. We will also follow the walk around the sculpture trail at Cooper's Hill to learn more about what species live on this site!
This activity is part of the Youth Week 2026 (15-23 Aug) run by Wildlife Trust BCN. For more activities run during the Youth Week across all three counties, please click here.
