Monday 13th February:

Wetlands for wildlife and people

is the title of independent farming & wildlife consultant, Roger Wardle’s Power Point presentation. The talk will look at the importance of wetlands for birds and a wide range of other species that contribute to biodiversity, and why there is a need to protect, restore and recreate various types of wetland.
Links will also be made to other potential benefits, including potential flood protection, water improvement, and tourism and recreation. There will also be examples of restoration and other wetland projects in Lincolnshire, including sites to visit.

Questions are encouraged during the presentation.

Group visit to Far Ings National Nature Reserve.
