This event comprises a bird watching and citizen science introduction at community-owned restoration project, Long Lands Common. Participants will learn how to ID birds while on a guided walk, and how to partake in citizen science surveys. Please consider a 1km (~20 min) walk to the site, and then a slow walk around the site. 

The event is free to attend and open to those aged 16-25. We aim to create a welcoming, supportive space where participants can connect, learn and enjoy nature without pressure or judgement.

The walk is wheelchair accessible (route via a different entrance), and we’re happy to adjust activities to accommodate your accessibility needs - please let us know if the alternative route is required in advance. 

Toilets are located on site. Please note: There are no places to purchase food and drink. 

Nearby bus and train services are available, and support can be offered if required. 

This event is run with the support of BTO and Long Lands Common. If you have any questions, please email youth@bto.org.

Please note: After registering, participants under 18 will need to complete and sign a consent form with their parent(s)/guardian(s). Completed forms will need to be sent to youth@bto.org before the event.
