We’re delighted that @IanThewildside will be speaking this May:
ukeconet.org/creating-and-ma…
Ian will explore how #rewilding should extend from the moors to the shores, and into our towns and cities, where green corridors and urban #greenspaces connect people with #nature.
Book now!
It's #WorldRewildingDay!
Rewilding can happen everywhere: from mountain-tops to window boxes. Green corridors along rivers, verges and hedgerows connect nature and people across our cities.
