BIOBLITZ, TALKS, THANK-YOUS & PRESENTATIONS WITH AGM 2026 - followed by lunch
Saturday 12 September 2026
You’re warmly invited to join us for Andover Trees United’s annual Walks, Bioblitz, AGM & Lunch — a chance to get together, explore the Diamond Wood, celebrate everything we have achieved over the past year, and say a very big THANK YOU to everyone who has helped make it happen.
Your support really does make a difference.
Once a year, we come together to share our achievements, celebrate our volunteers and members, hear about what’s planned for the year ahead, and give everyone the opportunity to share their ideas for the future of the charity.
Bioblitz, TALKS & Thanks | 10:00am–12:00pm
9:45am – Arrive
Please arrive in time for a 10:00am start.
10:00am – Bioblitz led by Ecology Intern
Join our intern for a guided Bioblitz in the wood, discovering more about the habitats and wildlife of the Diamond Wood. The Bioblitz encourages you to keep your eyes peeled for plants, insects, birds and other wildlife as we explore! This is also a taster session for young people interested in the NEW!! NATURE CLUB starting in October.
10:45am – Tea, Coffee & Refreshments
We’ll return to The Cabin for a cuppa, refreshments and a chance to catch up with fellow ATU members, volunteers and supporters.
11:05am – Annual General Meeting
Our formal AGM will begin, including an update on the charity’s work and achievements over the past year.
If you have volunteered with ATU during the past year, you have voting rights at the AGM, and we encourage everyone to contribute their thoughts, ideas and suggestions about the charity and its future.
11:35am – Presentations, Thank-Yous & Short Talks
Hear from a range of people involved with ATU and discover more about the breadth of our work, our achievements and our plans for the future.
We’ll also be celebrating our volunteers, including King’s Award for Voluntary Service presentations, before welcoming new friends to the ATU community.
Lunch | 12:15–1:00pm
After the AGM, there will be time to look around our displays, chat with the team, ask questions and enjoy a light lunch together.
Please let us know in advance if you would like to stay for lunch and tell us about any allergies or dietary requirements, so we can prepare enough food for everyone.
