🌙 About the Event
Join us for an early evening walk to discover the bats of Worcester! This event is exclusively for University of Worcester students and offers a chance to learn about local bat species, how to detect them using bat detectors, and how to support bat conservation.
While late autumn isn’t the peak season for bat activity, we’re hoping to spot a few species as they prepare for overwintering. It’s a great opportunity to experience bat surveying techniques and enjoy a twilight walk through bat-friendly habitats.
