Meet Paige

Countryside Ranger

A person in a red jacket uses a drill to attach a wooden piece to a green fence post outdoors, surrounded by trees and shrubs.

After joining the King's Trust's Get Ready for Careers in Nature and Conservation course, Paige was one of several participants who were successful in getting an apprenticeship as a Countryside Ranger.

“My confidence has improved massively and I can be more social with people. I’ve always had an interest in working outdoors so am excited that I get to do that for a job now! It feels great to work in a field which I know makes a meaningful difference to wildlife.”
