About the event

Our Roving Ranger initiative is a great way of getting outdoors, keeping fit and improving your wellbeing with regular doses of nature. As you walk the wild paths of our reserves and notice something interesting we will show you how to apply that interest and be a citizen recorder, helping us find out about how wildlife is doing across Staffordshire. 

This walk our focus is spotting fungi. We are not foraging only learning more about the range of natural species our reserve holds. 

Feel free to sign up in advance and become a Roving Ranger: https://www.staffs-wildlife.org.uk/roving-rangers-sign

This opportunity is brought to you by The Wilder Neighbourhoods Project, funded by Know your Neighbourhood.
