Hi Giorgia, I've not been involved, but Groundwork NE and Cumbria might be worth checking out (for vacancies and/or for opportunities to volunteer). Good luck, Emma-Kate ________________________________ From: psci-com: on public engagement with science <[log in to unmask]> on behalf of Giorgia Perri <[log in to unmask]> Sent: 17 August 2016 13:13 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [PSCI-COM] Apprenticeships Hi Kirsty, Thank you for your help, I will look in to these.

The requirements for ecology/conservation posts are often quite different from environmental education roles, so it might be best to pick one area of work and focus on getting the skills/qualifications/experience needed. If interested in ecology then things like bird ID skills and a phase one surveying qualification would be useful. If you would prefer to go into environmental education then hands on experience with a wide range of client groups would be more beneficial (possibly through volunteering), and an outdoor first aid course too. The Conservation Volunteers and the RSPB are both quite good at providing free training for regular volunteers. Good luck, Kirsty ________________________________ From: psci-com: on public engagement with science <[log in to unmask]> on behalf of Giorgia Perri <[log in to unmask]> Sent: 17 August 2016 10:29 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [PSCI-COM] Apprenticeships Hi Anthea, Thank you again for some good advice, I will have a look at these sites and hopefully find something!

Why don't you try getting in touch with the National Trust, Wildlife and Wetlands Trust, English Heritage, whoever owns Kielder... they're bound to have places/projects in the area. What about the local water companies? Not very sexy, but they do environment/ecological related work. Or maybe try getting in touch with the relevant departments at the region's Universities or colleges and see if they can help at all? They'll have contacts outside of academia. Don't be shy - people love it when someone shows initiative and an interest in something they're involved in!
