There is also the option to actively paint parts of the piece.Time allowing, the session will also feature a brief guided tour of the reserve at a time when most people don’t access it. Because of this, we are much more likely to see some of the wildlife that is less visible through the working day. Please note that given the nature of this session, attendees should turn up dressed in clothes they are willing to get dirty or which may incur staining from the painting of the den.As this session is after hours, your group leader will meet attendees at the second barrier on Mallard Way.This will also be the collection point.Join Conservation Rangers - a group of young volunteers - and get some hands on experience of managing a nature reserve and recording the wildlife. You'll gain new skills and get involved in conservation tasks including surveying, planting and painting tasks during these sessions.These volunteering hours can count towards a Duke of Edinburgh Award or can be recorded as work experience on your CV, plus you’re helping to do your bit for the environment!Please dress for the weather and bring suitable waterproof clothing. Wear sturdy boots/footwear.Activities across different sessions may include:Hand tool usePaintingPlantingGrass cutting and rakingLitter picking - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/durham/conservation-rangers-at-rainton-meadows/100001990374292087 - **Event Categories**: art, fine-arts, volunteering - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Durham - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Rainton Meadows - **lat**: 54.83119965 - **long**: -1.495584249 - **full address**: Rainton Meadows, Rainton Meadows Nature Reserve, Durham, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Conservation Rangers at Rainton Meadows - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/8fb0b0433fd39807521037eab17adf7151d931db8f0a45fab1e7c371cb8812fd-rimg-w1100-h300-dcdae5a0-gmir.jpg?v=1781673101 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Conservation Rangers at Rainton Meadows being held? - **A:** Conservation Rangers at Rainton Meadows takes place on Thu, 18 Jun, 2026 at 05:30 pm to Thu, 18 Jun, 2026 at 07:30 pm at Rainton Meadows, Rainton Meadows Nature Reserve, Durham, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Conservation Rangers at Rainton Meadows? - **A:** Conservation Rangers at Rainton Meadows is organized by Durham Wildlife Trust. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
