Let's Learn Moor
Find out more about how and why we introduce thousands of schoolchildren the moors every year.
Let’s Learn Moor, the UK’s largest upland classroom, takes place from 29 June to Friday 10 July at eight locations across northern England.
Let’s Learn Moor is a collaborative educational project which is overseen by BASC and funded by BASC’s Legacy Fund. Events are facilitated by the Regional Moorland Groups and private estates across northern England, with the support of more than 50 other partners.
Let’s Learn Moor takes place in the North York Moors, Nidderdale, Calderdale, the Yorkshire Dales, North Pennines and the Forest of Bowland. The project launched in 2017 and has continued to grow year-on-year, with more than 13,500 children from a wide range of schools having attended the events to date.
Over the course of the events, children from urban and rural schools will engage directly with those who manage and protect the UK’s moorland landscapes, gaining first-hand knowledge about conservation, biodiversity, and rural careers.
Let’s Learn Moor is made possible through BASC’s Legacy Fund, ensuring that children from a range of backgrounds can take part in this vital educational initiative. Watch this page for updates on Let’s Learn Moor 2025; you can also find out more about the initiative by watching our film below.
