We are delighted to be able to host this 'in person' Local Environment Groups Conference to highlight to community groups and parish councils what they can do for hedgerows and verges on their patch. Join us on Saturday 28th Oct 2023 - Click here for more information and to book your place.
A day celebrating our natural corridors! We hope that the presentations and guided walks will stimulate questions and discussion. We would also like to offer the opportunity to give an update of your own. Maybe you would like to talk about a new project you have been involved with. There will be 7 five minute slots available during the ‘Round Table of Updates’ for those who would like to give an update. Please email Jessica if you would like to provide an update.
Display boards: We have 20 spots for display boards. Please email jessica@wildoxfordshire.org.uk if you would like to bring one.
