Providers, leaders, teachers and volunteers: it is not a requirement to attend any training before you can run a John Muir Award. Please download the Award Handbook to find out everything you need to know to get started and run a successful Award.

If it's your first time delivering the Award, we suggest taking a look at these short videos, created to support you - available on the John Muir Award YouTube playlist. Here you will find:

  • Introduction to the John Muir Award - Wild Places Guardian
  • John Muir Award Proposal Form
  • John Muir Award Review Form

Provider workshops

We run a free 90 minute workshop each month to provide an introduction to the Wild Places Guardian Award. These sessions cover the Award criteria, how to get involved and provide an opportunity to ask questions and share ideas with fellow attendees. Booking is required, via the links below.
