Volunteer Trips

There have been a number of trips in the autumn of 2012 and spring 2013 including two conservation visits to the National Trust in Eskdale, a visit to some private woodland and the Community Orchard in Grange and visits to the Windermere Steamboat Museum and Blackwell. We are very busy at Ford Park itself during the period from Easter to September so the next visits will probably be later in the year
