Coast & Vale Youth Rangers

The Coast & Vale Youth Rangers is a free volunteer group for young people aged 13-18 who are interested in gaining hands-on skills and experience in conservation and environmental work.

Sessions usually take place outdoors on the first Sunday morning of each month at various green spaces in the Dedham Vale National Landscape and the Suffolk & Essex Coast & Heaths National Landscape.

Activities are varied and include practical conservation work, wildlife surveys, beach cleans, community tasks, bushcraft and outdoor pursuits.

It’s a great way of meeting new friends, building confidence and gaining valuable skills for the workplace. Either meet at activity location or book a lift in the minibus from Ipswich.
