About this event
Enjoy a relaxed woodland walk with NHSN, taking a gentle stroll through nature and discovering whatever wildlife crosses our path.
This new series of informal walks is a wonderful opportunity to meet and chat with fellow NHSN members, share observations, and simply enjoy being outdoors together. NHSN staff will also be joining, giving you a chance to exchange ideas, ask questions and share your thoughts about what you’d like to see NHSN doing in your area.
While there’s no set focus, we’re likely to spot wildflowers, insects, birds and more. Please bring binoculars, a hand lens, or any other tools you’d like to use for observing wildlife.
