Bradford Urban Wildlife Group
Recording, observing and protecting Bradford wildlife & habitats
Welcome to BUWG
About Us:
Established in 1987, the group exists to promote interest in and conservation of wildlife and habitats in the Bradford area.
A good example of our work is the creation and maintenance of a butterfly meadow on land at Shipley station, carried out in partnership with the Yorkshire Branch of Butterfly Conservation. Read more about us.
Coming Up - Our Next Event:
Indoor Talk: BUTTERFLY TALK – CANCELLED, New Event Announced:
Thu 20th Nov, 19:30-21:15 – Kirkgate Community Centre, Shipley (W3W – dust.flops.libraries)
Unfortunately, Nick Hall, our speaker this week from Butterfly Conservation, has had to cancel at very short notice. We are very sorry to all of you (and us) as we were looking forward to his talk. However, we still having an event and are pleased to announce that the evening will now consist of two items:
1. There will be a Mega Wildlife Quiz with prizes
2. There will be a Mega Book and Christmas Gift Sale
There will also be an opportunity to socialise with other members and like minded people. Please do come along – no need to book. Doors open at 19:15 for a 19:30 start. We are once again in the Shipley Kirkgate Centre. All the items for sale are brand new and have been donated to BUWG to raise funds for our cause. There are good stocks of most items, and they can either be taken away on the night or ordered to be collected at our next meet just before Christmas. The severe weather looks like it is going to spare us, so fingers crossed!
