Focus on ... Education

Children pond-dipping

Many local wildlife organisations and groups contribute to education. There is an informal group where representatives meet occasionally to share ideas and information. Between 2003 and 2004 the education group oversaw a project called Youthweb which targeted teenagers and created opportunities for them to be engaged with biodiversity.

Ongoing education work is also aimed at lifelong learning with activities organised for school children and volunteers of any age.
