Outdoor Learning Officer

As part of the FoodFutures Where The Wildings Are! project, LESS has an exciting opportunity
for someone who is experienced in delivering outdoor learning activities to children and young
people, and an interest in permaculture or gardening, to become an Outdoor Learning Officer
planning and delivering the PermaWarriors Club. PermaWarriors is a new 3 year program of
permaculture, gardening and nature-based after-school clubs and holiday clubs across school
communities in the Lancaster and Morecambe area, inspiring children and their families to
develop a connection to their local environment. 

The PermaWarriors Club is part of the Where The Wildings Are! project which aims to tackle food
insecurity, climate change and biodiversity loss through an ambitious programme of edible
landscaping, rewilding and food growing through permaculture within the grounds of all
educational establishments across the district. There are currently 15 schools involved in the
project, with more joining in September 2024. We are now looking to expand our team to increase
the opportunities available for children to get outside, learn new skills and develop their
understanding of the interconnectedness of humans and nature.
