Whilst our volunteer editors will do their best to ensure our events listings are as up to date and accurate as possible; with the fast pace of how things are changing, it is inevitable that some will slip through the net. If you are planning on travelling for larger events, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly to avoid disappointment. We are putting in place new measures to give event organisers a friendly reminder to see if they wish to remove cancelled events, so we're sorry if it looks a bit bare in here :(
If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for free, professional advice.

Immerse yourself in nature then record your response in your own way. First time journal writers and experienced scribblers welcome!
On this relaxed course we'll go for a walk around the reserve, stopping to notice what we can see, hear, smell and feel, taking time to soak up our surroundings. Once back at the centre we'll have the time to create a memory of our walk-not a masterpiece but an opportunity to record our observations and be creative. Guidance and a range of materials will be provided. However, if you have a journal you would like to start or continue use do bring it along.
Hot and cold drinks and biscuits will be provided. You are welcome to bring a picnic lunch to eat on the reserve after the workshop.
The event will be lead by BBOWT Learning Officer Julie Read, a keen nature journal maker who enjoys sharing her painting hobby.

Wildlife Gardening Workshop: Low Input Gardening and Wildlife Ponds, 8th June 2025, 10:00 to 13:00 at Sutton Courtenay Environmental Education Centre (13.7 miles)
Learn how "less" can be "more" in gardening with our visiting expert, then find out for yourself the benefits a pond offers in your garden.
This half day workshop combines a talk on Low Input Gardening and a Q+A session from organic gardening expert Robert Longstaff; with a practical pond exploration session, discovering the importance of water in your garden. The talk will focus on Low Input Gardening. When gardening in harmony with nature, often less is more! You'll learn how to become "almost organic", picking up tips on re-use and recycling, reducing the amount of money you spend on your garden and gardening with nature.
The talk will finish with a Q and A session then a break for tea and biscuits (provided). After the break you'll join, SCEEC learning manager, Charlotte Howe to learn about the role of ponds in a wildlife friendly garden. This will be a practical session - using nets to dip out samples of the tiny animals living in the pond, then learning to identify them. We'll discover what the invertebrate population can tell you about the health of your pond, and how the pond is integral to a healthy and diverse garden ecosystem.
Hot drinks and biscuits provided. This event has been made possible by the Vale of the White Horse District Council Climate Action Fund.

The sessions are relaxed and informal with the option of a shorter route if you prefer. Come alone, come with a friend, bring your baby in a carrier - all welcome! Come and soak up the nature in friendly company!
