About the event

Take part in our fun and friendly Bioblitz event at Broad Meadow Local Nature Reserve and record Staffordshire’s Wildlife and come and see the amazing Snake’s Head Fritillaries.

Meet enthusiasts and experts, have a go at bug hunting, listen for birds, identify trees and wildflowers. Let’s see how many records we can add to the Staffordshire Ecological Record!

Broad Meadow LNR  
This 25-hectares LNR is situated on the island between the two channels of the River Tame, off Lichfield Road near to the Moor Street traffic island. It is recognised as a site of biological importance, as it is a prime example of lowland meadow – a floodplain grassland habitat which is becoming increasingly rare in Staffordshire and across the UK. Broad Meadow is also one of only two sites in the county where the rare Snake’s Head Fritillary can be found growing wild

Look for us on site in the SWT shelter.
