Wanstead Park Bio Blitz


The Wren Group will be holding its first outdoor event soon!

Saturday June 26th: Wanstead Park Bio Blitz

We will be running a stall from 10am- 2pm near the Tea Hut in the Park to direct people to events, sell things, plant seeds with children and much more. This will be the start point for the day’s activities.

There will be two walks:

Walk 2

2pm – Wanstead Park (meet by Wren stand near the Tea Hut)

As it is a weekend, some free parking should be found in the surrounding area. Please bring water, sun protection, and suitable footwear. Events will go ahead whatever the weather.

Walks are free of charge, open to all and intended to increase interest in the natural history of the Park.
