UPCOMING EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES - FEB - MAR 2010

Happy New Year everyone,

We've been working closely with several schools over the last few weeks (updates to follow), so welcome to new followers and look out for photos of yourselves....!

There's plenty of action coming up over the next couple of months. For starters, we've got Nature Trips to The London Wetland Centre for each estate during the February half-term. This amazing reserve is thought of as the best urban reserve in Europe, and we'll be picking up and dropping off from your doorsteps....

The dates are:

Kings Cross Ten estate - Tuesday 16th February
Whitechapel estate - Wednesday 17th February
Pembury estate - Thursday 18th February


Places are very limited, so be sure to get in touch as soon as possible to reserve your place. you can do this by emailing me at mpearson@wildlondon.org.uk, or calling 07971 077084 (leaving a message is fine, just make sure you leave your name and number).

By special request, we've organised an Outdoor Skills day for all estate residents at Camley St Natural Park, Kings Cross. Otherwise known as 'Bushcraft', it'll be a full day including how to use knives, outdoor foraging and cooking, making shelters and much more with our resident expert Enric.

All you have to do is make your own way there, and we'll refund your travel expenses. Places are again very limited, so get in touch....

We also have practical conservation days coming up on several Sundays in February and March, on all three estates - so if you fancy getting your hands dirty, planting shrubs, putting up nest boxes and bird-feeders, watch this space....!

see you soon

Mark
