Our Mountain Paths Need You! June & July Volunteering Opportunities

The Mountains and the people will be running more volunteering days coming up in June / July if any club members are interested.

On these tasks, you will undertake what is known as a “drainage run”. This means walking the route of the path, with a member of The Mountains & The People team and other volunteers, clearing the drainage features as you go.

Think of it as a nice walk on an iconic mountain in the National Park, with a spade. This work is vitally important to ensure the newly built paths are kept in a good condition.
