Our next talk is Restoring the River Wear by Peter Nailon of the Wear Rivers Trust on 21st March 24, who will tell us about their projects and the environmental challenges they face to ensure our rivers are safer and cleaner. This talk is at Harehope Quarry, Frosterley. We have now finalised the 2024 programme, please see the calendar for details of all the events. If you have any suggestions for walks or talk, please let us know, our contact details are at the bottom of this page. Please feel free to send us your favourite pictures of wildlife (using the WWG email address, which is near the bottom of this page). Wildlife is an important part of Weardale's landscape but much of it is being lost. In order to conserve and protect our natural heritage we want to play our part in understanding our wildlife and encouraging others to enjoy our surroundings. We aim to: - Bring together people interested in wildlife
- Record key wildlife species and their habitats
- Encourage local interest in wildlife and conservation
- Share our knowledge and skills with other groups and organisations
If you would like to get involved, your enthusiasm and interest would be warmly welcome and we have many events in the pipeline. Please see our calendar for upcoming walks, talks, gatherings and events. Our email is enquiries@weardalewildlifegroup.co.uk or check out our facebook page. Please feel free to send images for our photo gallery. Please note, we have a no dog policy. To record wildlife follow the link for the AONB's recording site irecord.
