Sessions involve activities like mud play, pond dipping and campfire cooking. Knowledge of wildlife is not essential as the focus is on providing a safe space for toddlers to play and explore the outdoors independently. An ability to communicate with young children and support adults is more important. Volunteers will be expected to help set up the session and tidy/clear away afterwards, including any washing up that accumulates over the session. Please note that the role can be physically demanding, includes being out in all weathers, carrying equipment and walking some distance over rough, steep and or muddy ground.
