We’re looking for 18-25 year olds to become a Belfast Hills Youth Ranger.
As a Belfast Hills Youth Ranger, you will be assigned your own site in the hills to help look after. This will involve you walking your site and submitting a short report each month. By reporting any issues or points of interest, you will be helping site managers and the Belfast Hills Partnership (BHP) look after the species and habitats in the Hills, and assign management resources appropriately.
No experience is necessary for the role. Training is provided, so all abilities and backgrounds are welcome. We are just looking for hardworking and enthusiastic individuals aged 18 – 25, who can volunteer a day or two each month. Perhaps you have been thinking about pursuing a career in the environmental sector and are looking to gain work experience and increase your employability skills, or maybe you just want to work outdoors and do your bit to care for nature.
In return for your hard work and dedication you’ll receive:
A Wild Youth Silver or Gold Award (certificates based on your level of volunteering hours)
Practical work experience
Training in environmental surveying and basic plant ID skills
A celebration event upon completion of the role
A Hills Youth Ranger hoodie (on submission of three site reports)
