Join the Scottish Wildlife Trust and friends for a friendly and informal workshop open to anyone who wants to organise action for nature where they live. Perhaps you help run a community garden that provides homes for wildlife, or you want to try and encourage more of your neighbours to create wild spaces in their gardens. Whether you are an established community leader or a passionate individual looking for a place to start, all are welcome!
We'll hear inspiring stories from in and around Glasgow and work together to map our communities, share knowledge and ask questions.
The workshop will run on Tuesday 16 September at 10am and Thursday 2 October at 7pm. Both events will follow a similar format and you are welcome to attend one, or both.
Free but booking is essential. Refreshments will be provided.
