It's the start of a new year and in this episode you'll hear about how Cumbria Wildlife Trust helps young people make a start in a career in nature conservation. We hear from apprentices, and previous apprentices about their experiences getting their first role with us and their plans for their future.

We also hear from students in Carlisle about what inspires them to make time to improve nature in their school grounds.  

Our host Joe Murphy, Head of Nature Reserves, talks to guest host Danny Poland a previous young Trustee of Cumbria Wildlife Trust.
