Butterfly Workshop 19 July 10 – 1: click for details
This event is free for members and £5 for non-members (including one-year membership). Join conservationist Steve Bolton for:-
- A 1 hour introductory presentation in Lauderdale House to butterflies and how to identify and record them
- A 1.5 hour guided walk around the Waterlow Park nature area with Steve looking at butterflies and practising the recording techniques. The workshop is aimed at beginners but all levels are welcome.
Recent data has shown that 2024 was one of the worst years on record for the UK’s butterflies. For the first time ever, more than half of our butterfly species in the UK are in long-term decline. With 85% of the UK population living in urban areas, it has never been such an important time to support conservation and community engagement in our UK cities. 18 species have previously been recorded in Waterlow Park and more areas have recently been planted to encourage butterflies.
Numbers are limited to 25 so please book early.
