More Work Placement Options

Other Options?

I have been looking at some other options for work placement / volunteering and looking through this site (https://www.countryside-jobs.com/volunteers/volunteering-organisations/north-west) I have looked at websites and contacted some of the more local ones to see if there are any opportunities available 

This includes National Trust, Arnside and Silverdale AONB and Lake District National Park Authority. 

Unfortunately so far, none of these groups are taking on volunteers or doing group activities due to Covid restrictions.

Possibilities?

 Today I have spoken to my Tutor and she has suggested we try to arrange some work experience either through a former pupil or with another Tutor who may be able to take me out on field surveys in the local area. I will wait to see if this is possible before trying another route.  So far I have a volunteer day with Friends of the Lake District (approx 7 hours) and the Mammal Mapper I can use on walks to survey any Mammal signs.
