Young people aged 13 to 18 are being invited to join South Ayrshire's Junior Environmental Volunteer programme. 

South Ayrshire Council's ranger service is looking for young people who could be interested in practical conservation work. 

The programme is based in Fullarton Woods in Troon, and takes place on the last Sunday of every month. 

The sessions will introduce outdoor environmental conservation skills such as habitat management, use of hand tools and invasive non-native species control. 

Booking is essential, and can be done by emailing ranger.service@south-ayrshire.gov.uk.
