Running from SATURDAY 25TH JULY TO SUNDAY 2ND AUGUST

IN COLLABORATION WITH SURREY WILDLIFE TRUST #HEATHWEEK2020

HEATHLAND AT HOME

We are surrounded by beautiful heaths From Yateley / Hook / Farnham / Camberley and further afield.  if you are looking for fun things to do with your family while the schools are closed then check out our free downloadable activities. Secure your place in our #HeathlandAtHome gallery, and remember to look out for new challenges on social media during Heath Week!
 

HEATH WEEK APP

The Heath Week app is a heathland ID guide to help you identify and record what you see. A visit to your local heath could bring sightings of carnivorous plants, super-fast metallic-green beetles with ferocious jaws, nocturnal birds steeped in folklore and butterflies that can disappear right in front of your eyes!
 

HEATHLAND TV

Throughout Heath Week we’ll be showcasing the Thames Basin Heaths on social media and Surrey Wildlife Trust’s website. We’ve got a host of great things to share from virtual tours, crafty ideas for kids and wildlife spotlights. If we can’t meet you on the heaths, we’ll bring the heathlands to your home!
 
 

HEATHLAND IN FOCUS

Browse heathland highlights from our archive and keep in touch with regular news & blogs. We cover a lot more than just nightjars! From beginning bird watching, reptiles and other wildlife wonders, to news from the MOD Training Estate, fire prevention and countryside law.
