Headquarters
The Head of the Ranger and Volunteer Service is based at Dartmoor National Park Authority headquarters, Parke, near Bovey Tracey, along with an administrator providing full time office support.
National Park headquarters provides a central control point for Ranger Service operations and enables efficient liaison with Officers working in specific disciplines such as ecology, information, recreation, communications, education and archaeology, as well as other agencies and organisations.
Twice a month the Ranger Service has formal meetings at headquarters to enable discussion, download information from global positioning systems (GPS), access e-mails, plan work parties and work programmes, and formalise daily cover/days off.
Administration work involves the management of public rights of way and access information databases, dealing with telephone enquiries, and general office management routines.
