Holme Fen NNR
Sat 14th November 2026
10am - 1pm
Youth Rangers is a group for secondary-aged young people (11-17 years) keen to make a positive difference to their local environment. We meet throughout the year at various Cambridgeshire nature reserves and would love to welcome you to our group.
Join us for another fantastic session of learning real, practical conservation skills, learning from industry professionals and making a positive impact for wildlife. You do not need any experience to attend. This month, discover the fascinating world of fungi at one of the UK's most unique nature reserves! Join us for a guided walk through Holme Fen NNR, home to a rich variety of woodland and wetland fungi. Led by a knowledgeable fungi enthusiast, this walk will explore the hidden life of mushrooms, toadstools, and other curious species growing beneath the silver birch trees and on the fenland floor. You'll learn how to identify different types of fungi and understand their role in the ecosystem. Expect a relaxed pace with plenty of stops to observe and discuss finds. Perfect for anyone keen to learn more about fungi in a friendly, informative setting.
Please bring water and dress appropriately for the weather - Layers and waterproofs. Long sleeves and trousers recommended. Please wear sensible boots or wellies.
Please note:
Bookings are not confirmed until we have received your completed paperwork and consent form (for each child).
