Charlie’s story
Meet Charlie, The Parks Foundation’s first Young Adult Ranger, who has found his passion for working outdoors.
Following work experience sessions with our charity, Charlie is now undertaking an internship with the Countryside Education Trust.
‘Working with people like Will [Young Adult Ranger Programme Lead], he taught me loads of skills and then I got to the point where I’m with him and explaining things to [other] volunteers.’
Find out more – listen to what our Rangers said on BBC Radio Solent.
