On the 1st February the Green Spaces Team organised for Paul Shoreman to provide free training for Prospects staff and volunteers. Paul is a ranger at Lancashire County Council who manages around 85 sites across Lancashire.
The training involved learning the features of a compass, how to read contour lines on a map, and how to use a compass to calculate a bearing. This was followed by a practical session at Woodnook Vale putting the theory in practice.
Everyone had a great day and learnt some valuable navigation skills which are applicable to a wide range of situations.
We would like to thank Paul Shoreman for taking the time to teach us these important skills, and to everyone who attended and made it a great day!
As always, we would like to thank our funders Green Recovery Challenge Fund and National Lottery Heritage Fund for making this all possible.
