- already a member looking for survey information, events to help with or old meeting minutes,
- a prospective new member hoping to find out what we do, when and where, and how to join us,
- someone who wants to find out more about the bat flying around their garden at night or to make their garden more bat-friendly.
We hope we will have the information you are looking for.
