Police are appealing for volunteers to help assist with the Urban Heaths Partnership.
The aim is to form a network of volunteers who use Dorset’s heaths for dog walking, biking, bird watching and other recreational activities who will let the police know of any issues and be on the lookout for heath fires.
To join, visit the ‘Community Heath Watch-Dorset’ page on Facebook.
