Join BTO Youth and RSPB for two optional walks around the RSPB Rainham Marshes Nature Reserve, guided by young volunteers Samuel Levy and Ben.

 

Join Youth Volunteer Samuel and RSPB Volunteer Ben for one of two young birders walks around Rainham Marshes Nature Reserve, marked out as part of the Thames Estuary and one of the best nature reserves London has to offer. There is the option to join an earlier walk at 09:30 - 12:30, which you can also sign up for. This event will give the opportunity to meet other like-minded young people with an interest in birds, build on new connections, and learn various birding expertise from our hosts.

The site is approximately a 2.5 mile circular walk and is wheelchair friendly, with toilets available at the Visitor Centre and halfway on route. Meeting place will be at 13:30pm outside of the RSPB Rainham Marshes Visitor Centre, New Tank Hill Road, Purfleet, Essex, RM19 1SZ. We will aim to be finished by around 16:00pm.

This event is ran with the support of BTO and RSPB.
