This year, events took place across eight locations in the Peak District NP (Derbyshire and South Yorkshire), Yorkshire Dales NP, Nidderdale AONB, North York Moors NP, Forest of Bowland AONB, Northern Pennines AONB and Calderdale from 4 to 8 July.
Hosted by the seven English moorland groups, Let’s Learn Moor provides a free outdoor education experience for thousands of children.
Local school children enjoyed interactive lessons from a diverse range of partner organisations, from National Park Authorities to emergency services and conservation organisations to farmers and water utility companies, who all help to protect our stunning upland landscapes.
The lessons see local school children learn about the ecosystem of a moor, ‘rescuing’ their teachers with the mountain rescue, practicing their fire safety skills, and learning about the importance of the precious carbon-rich peatlands beneath their feet. They will also have the opportunity to try some delicious game meat.
