DofE Residential - Environment and Conservation

Here in North Wales, we have an excellent network of charities and organisations that support essential environmental management and conservation work. These include the Snowdonia Society, Snowdonia National Park, National Trust and North Wales Wildlife Trust.

During your week with us, we’ll look at different aspects of essential environmental conservation in Snowdonia. This can include path maintenance, wildlife surveying and identification sessions, removal of invasive species, learning about forestry processes, litter picks and beach cleans and managing livestock in an upland environment.

The exact scope of each week will depend on what our local charities and groups think is appropriate at the time. Any input will certainly be appropriate and relevant to the aims of this rewarding week.

The cost of the residential includes all food, accommodation and transport during the week (transport to/from Snowdonia is not included, although we can arrange pick up from a train station).
