Young People
From winding rivers to expansive heathland, ancient woodland to stunning coastline – the New Forest has it all.
This makes it a great place for young people to get excited about nature and learn to connect with, enjoy and care for wild places.
Our opportunities for young people are open to all, whatever your background and whether you’re an individual, group or part of an organisation.
Also, check out our opportunities for schools and groups.
