The Urban Wildlife Challenge Team is focused on expanding Londoners’ knowledge of the nature just around the corner. We have four key components to our program this year, each targeting a different sector of the community. We will be participating in Imperial’s Lates event on our Future Cities on March 11, providing adults interested in adding a little green to their lives with a seed bomb for their window box planter, and some fun activities. We’ll once again have a stall at the Great Exhibition Road Festival in June, collaborating with researchers to engage families in the nature they can find in a nearby park, as well as making two school visits for younger children to encourage them to find the wildlife in a nearby park. We’re also engaging the local area through a collaboration with South Ken ZEN+ and the Knightsbridge Association to encourage more local pollinating plants! Check back in throughout the year for little updates after each event happens.
