Become a Young Forester and get your green on!

This Young Foresters event is for young people aged 12-18 years to come out and get hands on in the beautiful Heart of England Forest.  Offering the chance to take positive action to combat climate change, gain valuable work experience, and forge new friendships, all whilst benefitting mentally and physically from spending time outdoors, this is a fantastic opportunity not to be missed!

For those who need it, minibus transport provided from Esquires Coffee, Arden Quarter, Alcester Road, Stratford-upon-Avon, CV37 6PP (opposite the pedestrian entrance to the train station) to event site of Middle Spernal, Spernal Lane, Great Alne, B49 6JE. Minibus departs from the train station at 1pm.

This is a FREE outdoor event on uneven, perhaps muddy ground so please wear suitable footwear such as walking boots or wellies, warm layers of clothing (long trousers or leggings essential), hat and scarf if it’s cold and a waterproof jacket if it’s raining. If you don’t have such items, don’t worry as we’re happy to provide you with waterproofs and wellies for the session if you need them. We will also provide suitable working gloves.

Hot drinks and biscuits will be available but please bring your own water/drink bottle. Toilets are available on site. Our minibus will take you back to Stratford-upon-Avon train station for 4 pm.
