Discovery Morning

Friday 5th December

Continuing our popular series of short walks in the Lagan Valley Regional Park, Discovery Mornings are held on the first Friday of every month and are essentially a walk with one of the Regional Park Rangers on one of their patrols. Throughout the year the walks take a number of differing routes and the seasonal changes throughout the year mean that every month offers new and interesting aspects of our wildlife to lookout for.

For our regular attendees please note the starting point will vary from month to month.
Meet at Lagan Valley Island, Lisburn (at front of Civic Centre) at 11.00am

Roost Ramble

Saturday 6th December

To some it may be music, to others utter mayhem! Come and join the LVRP Ranger Service as they explore the mysterious and exciting world of crows at roosting time and decide for yourself!
Meet at Belvoir Park Forest car park at 4.00pm

Grass Roots Volunteer task

One of Belfast's oldest practical conservation groups.

Grass Roots have been working in the Greater Belfast area for over 25 years on well-known sites such as Minnowburn, Colin Glen and along the River Lagan. They carry out all sorts of conservation volunteer tasks, from tree planting to dry stone walling, digging ponds to wildlife surveys and fencing to hedge-laying. Grass Roots undertake work throughout the Lagan Valley Regional Park. All work is carried out by volunteers and new members are welcome at any time. No experience is necessary - training is provided on the job. Transport can be arranged where necessary.
