The group of young apprentices are all employed in the Yorkshire

locations, learning trades such - ' as environmental conservation, . ;


- game-keeping and woodland management, ■' ' ' *' --Lra All have hands-on places with the

byJoyreBishop


URAL trainees were given a taste of things to come -


in a team-building session aimed at preparing them for the outdoors. ■


■


Millennium Trust (YDMT). This


provides ten 18-24 year . olds with a - potentially


life-changing opportunity to . .


- gain the qualifications, experience and rural skills needed to manage-• the Yorkshire Dajes landscape sensitively and sustainably. - And to.prepare them for^ ’ ' work, in what can be a harsh and .. unforgiving environment, the


.


training session ' - ■' introduced them : :


to map reading * and navigation, v competent use of


specialist outdoor equipment, and basic first aid training, as well asteam


working, leadership, delegation and communication skills.


- \ t involved a bespoke mountain


rescue.scenario, delivered by Stainforth-based Yorkshire Dales Guides, that allowed them to learn - - and apply all.of these skills.


- Guide Dave Gallivan said: ’ - ••


"Collectively, the instructors who . . delivered the training had 99 years' experience in mountain rescue. It was brilliant to be able to pass on ; .


. some of that experience to these young people who are working ; - outdoors."
