New Forest Transition said 21 people joined them to help with sustainable living activities and Minstead Study Centre reported 15 sign-ups. Citizens Advice New Forest said it had had another fantastic year at the Fair, recruiting seven new volunteers due to join them in the coming weeks.

Opening the Fair, Jamie said: “I think it’s very important that young people care for the New Forest and all the wildlife that is in it. Young people are the future of the Forest and will be hopefully preserving it for many years to come.” Find out more about volunteering on the New Forest National Park Authority website: www. newforestnpa.gov.uk/ communities/volunteer/ patient agreeing to share her story, linking with a nearby prestigious school, telling a gentleman who had no idea that all the air ambulances weren’t Governmentfunded all about the charity, linking with Sway News, and someone pledging to donate monthly.
