About the event
About the Project:
Nature in Your Neighbourhood is a five-year innovative community-led project. It's focus is to support communities in the Staffordshire Moorlands to improve green spaces where they live and monitor habitat health. It's hoped that over time, this project will highlight how much boosted biodiversity benefits both people and planet.
We have a range of nominated sites, chosen by local communities. Working together with University of Keele and local communities, we are surveying these sites to find out the baseline biodiversity.
About the event:
We will be plotting a large 10x10m square and recording the habitat features, soil quality and more. Our team will be onsite to help you through the survey steps, and explain the benefits of the survey. Equipment is provided. To let us know you would like to attend please book a space.
Location: Biddulph Valley Park, Thames Dr, Biddulph ST8 7HL
Meeting point: At the top of the leisure centre car park
Cost: Free for Staffordshire Moorlands residents, thanks to funding from The National Lottery Community Fund
Suitable for beginner ecologists and those who love nature and want to learn more.
*Our survey training will take approximately 2hrs. If you are able to stay longer on the day to complete two more surveys to fulfil the baseline survey requirements, we would really appreciate it. Remember to bring along lunch and water.
