Guards or Protectors Youth Gathering at Lackford Marsh Reservoir
Young Wardens at Lackford Lakes: A Hands-On Conservation Experience
Are you aged 17 or above and looking for a fun and educational outdoor adventure? Look no further than the Young Wardens programme at Lackford Lakes!
This exciting opportunity offers practical experience, a chance to get outdoors, and a way to meet new friends. Young Wardens is designed to introduce participants to the world of conservation through activities such as learning to use tools, carrying out practical tasks, conducting surveys of key wildlife species, and providing information that helps with conservation activities on the reserve.
To join, simply drop off your Young Warden at the event, ensuring you provide emergency contact details at the start of the session. Children attending the Young Wardens session should wear long trousers and sturdy footwear with thick soles for safety.
Please note that dogs, with the exception of assistance dogs, are not permitted in the visitor center or on the blue Trail near the lakes or hides. Dogs on leads are allowed on Sayer's Breck path and Church Walk.
The event meeting point can be found at the What3Words address: pencils.reckons.complies. For more information about the age range or specific mobility requirements, please contact the Lackford Lakes centre directly at lackford.engagement@our website.
While specific details about the Young Wardens group at Lackford Lakes were not immediately available, it is likely that the programme follows similar age requirements (around 11-16 years) and activities focused on wildlife discovery, conservation tasks, and outdoor learning as the Young Wardens programme at Carlton Marshes. Dress code is presumably practical outdoor clothing suitable for fieldwork, though confirmation from the Lackford Lakes or Suffolk Wildlife Trust website would be advisable.

Remember, Young Wardens should not be sent to the session alone as they will not be able to participate.
