Mid Suffolk Countryside Team’s new events diary is now available. It is packed with events for all ages, throughout 2009.

To start the year off, why not come along and find out about Bats? Enjoy a morning of illustrated talks and workshops led by the Bat Conservation Trust. Aimed at those who are new to bats and would like to know more, it is an opportunity to find out how to get more involved with bat conservation. No prior knowledge required.  

This is a free event open to anyone over 16 years old. Booking is essential, so don’t delay.  Introduction to Bats will run from 10am to 2.30pm on Saturday 31st January at Thornham Walks. 

Three shorter Evening Inspiration talks are also planned for February, March and April, so come along to Needham Market and find out more about your local area and nature conservation. Topics include a Ranger’s role in the countryside, Biodiversity in Suffolk and how woodlands are cared for.
