This event will begin with a guided walk of the Common Knowledge site, giving participants a chance to visit the nature restoration actions that have taken place across the 50 ha site, including a pond that was created as part of The Hares’ Corner initiative.
Following this, Anja Murray will host a panel discussion with a range of locals who have taken positive action for nature on their land, including a Heritage Keepers community group, a Farming for Nature ambassador and a Hare's Corner participant* . We will also hear from The Hare's Corner project ecologist Sharon Parr on easy wins for nature that people can achieve on their own land.
