You will be working alongside our partners - including local farmers, the University of Leeds, Forestry England, and the South Cumbria Rivers Trust - as part of the Upper Duddon Landscape Recovery Project, restoring a diverse range of habitats. These include farmland, woodlands, heathland, peatland, and upland areas.
