The Lake District National Park Authority looks after this unique corner of England, encouraging people to enjoy and appreciate its value and to conserve and enhance the cultural heritage, natural beauty, and unique wildlife of the Park. Our Ranger Services Volunteers work across the National Park to support the work of our Rangers out on the ground as well as acting as ambassadors for the Park, offering a friendly face to those locals and visitors encountered whilst out volunteering.
Ranger Services Volunteers generally work within specific area groups, with each group adopting a different location or locations and taking care of their local patch.
