APPLICATIONS are invited from people wanting to join the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority.
A vacancy has arisen after members Nicky Grace announced she would not be standing for re-election as a Secretary of State appointee when her three-year term expires next year.
The successful candidate will be expected to take an interest in strategic issues, such as responsibility for conservation, recreation, planning, access and resources.
Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority chairman Carl Lis said: "Secretary of State appointees play an invaluable role in ensuring the debate of the national park authority is balanced and informed with representatives from a wide range of interests, both local and national.
"We would welcome applications from anyone who is committed to achieving the aims and purposes of the national park authority."
For details or an application form, call Carol Foster on (01242) 533284. The deadline for applications is October 5.
