Here at Chiltern Rangers, our mission is to enhance the Chilterns’ habitats through conservation, education and community engagement. 

We work with local communities to provide habitat management in Buckinghamshire and the Chilterns.  You will find us in the woodlands, chalk grasslands, commons, ponds and chalk streams.  We also manage 13 nature reserves for Buckinghamshire Council.

Our work can only be achieved with the help of our volunteers – people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds, plus community organisations, charities, social enterprises, schools & colleges. 

 

If you would like to be part of our team, please look at our Get Involved! page for more information.
