The 2026 Big Garden Birdwatch, January 23-25
Join in with this year’s Big Garden Birdwatch! It’s the world’s largest garden wildlife survey. Every year, hundreds of thousands of nature lovers take part, helping to build a picture of how our garden birds are faring. Spend an hour during Birdwatch weekend, record the birds that land in your patch and then submit your results to the RSPB online or by post, (and please let us know as well!). For more information go to rspb.org.uk.
The Eco Team
St. Luke’s Hospice: Twilight Walk 2026
Once again we are planning to organise a Church team to join the 10K Twilight Walk in aid of St. Luke’s Hospice. The Walk will take place on March 21st, walking from 6.30 in Delamere Forest. We will be inviting people to sponsor us as a team (though everyone can walk at their own pace) and all money raised will go to St. Luke’s Hospice. You can find out more information on their website (St. Luke’s Hospice Twilight Walk).If you would like to join in, you will need to complete the official booking process, but please let me know as well so I can draw up the list of our Church team. Please note, there is a registration fee.
