Many teams work together to look after Nottinghamshire Country Parks. Here are just some of them:

Site Managers - responsible for the day to day runnning of each country park is a Site Manager.

Park Rangers - looking after visitors, running on-site events for education and leisure, and carrying out conservation and maintenance work on site.

Land Management – caring for the grounds, paths and gardens.

Forestry & Environment – specialist woodland management & environmental planning.

Catering – Providing meals and refreshments for visitors at Rufford & Sherwood Forest Country parks, making income that helps offset park costs.

Shops – Souvenirs, gifts and crafts for visitors to buy, generating income to help offset park running costs.

Arts Service – Ranging from exhibitions and courses at Rufford’s Craft Centre to ‘one off’ events such as outdoor theatre events, adding colour, culture and variety to the visitor experience.
