Traineeships in land management

Cogges offers opportunities for some 16-24 year olds to learn new skills in land management. We have developed a programme of activities to engage young people and enable us to manage and improve the habitat at the same time! Trainees will learn many of the skills of traditional woodland management, along with ditch and pond management and charcoal making.
