WednesdayFrequency:
WeeklyWe'll be meeting up every Wednesday from 10.00am to 3.00pm.Â
This is great opportunity to meet like minded people, learn more about ancient woodland habitats and develop your species identification skills. You'll be able to access additional training and when the balsam removal stops in September there will be the opportunity to help with other practical conservation activities.
No previous experience is needed just an eagerness to get stuck in whatever the weather!Â
We just ask that you dress appropriately for the weather and bring a packed lunch.Â
