Together we’ll set out in search of bees and other pollinators while recording our sightings for Gosforth's Wild Web. With a particular focus on bumblebees, we’ll learn how to identify some of the common species likely to be found in your garden and local green spaces.

This event comprises a walk of approx 1 mile, mostly on maintained paths.

Sturdy shoes.

Charlotte works to organise trips, talks and digital content to provide opportunities for you to discover and learn more about the region’s invertebrates.

With a combined passion for recording and insects, Charlotte spends her free time chasing after insects and recording what she sees for local and national recording schemes.
