The purpose of the LANSS is to support a skilled, inclusive workforce fit for the future of land and nature based work in Cumbria, meeting the needs of communities and our natural environment.
The Land + Nature Skills Service is here to support anyone who lives in or near Cumbria and has an interest in the land and nature based sectors. Perhaps you’re already employed, self-employed or involved in volunteering; maybe you’re a young person (aged 16+) looking to develop a career in the land and nature based sectors, or maybe you’re looking for a career change. Whoever you are, you’ve come to the right place to start your journey!
The LANSS is not a course provider, but rather a one-stop shop for finding everything you need to get started.
