About the event

Whether you're looking to gain specific skills to help you on your next career step, learn something new about local wildlife or spend three days with like minded people - this course is for you!

Immerse yourself in nature on the outskirts of Bristol at Avon Wildlife Trust's urban nature reserve, Grow Wilder. Activities will include:

  • practical tasks: weeding, scrub bashing
  • owl pellet dissecting
  • moth trapping
  • learning birdsong
  • mammal tracking
  • and more!

For those interested, there will also be an opportunity for career mentoring and signposting to your future steps in the conservation sector.
