Invitation to Attend Andover Trees’ Annual Nature in Harmony Presentation: What's Living in Our Wood.
Every year, Andover Trees United hosts a special evening at The Guildhall Andover to share the results of our annual biodiversity observations from The Diamond Wood.
This is our opportunity to present what we’ve seen, recorded and learned over the past year from wildlife sightings to habitat development, and to celebrate the collective effort that keeps our woodland thriving.
Evening Schedule:
• 6:15pm – Doors open with refreshments and displays
• 7:00pm – 8:00pm – Annual Nature in Harmony presentation
• 8:00pm onwards – Chat with the team, explore displays and find out how to get involved
More than a presentation of findings, this evening reflects ATU’s founding mission: to give young people a voice in protecting local biodiversity, creating meaningful experiences in nature today while safeguarding the woodland for future generations.
Whether you are a volunteer, supporter, parent, local resident or simply curious about nature in Andover, we warmly invite you to join us.
Please register via the link provided here or email abbey.sadler@andovertrees.org.uk to confirm your place.
We look forward to welcoming you.
