The aim is to monitor a selection of meadows pre- and post-restoration to see the impacts upon pollinator abundance\, whilst also adding vital data to a countrywide programme run by the BCT. The BeeWalks will be coordinated by a member of the Tees-Swale Farming and Nature Team. \nContact Molly for more information: molly@northpenninesaonb.org.uk.\nPlease sign up using our Better Impact volunteer system  \n  URL:https://northpennines.org.uk/event/beewalk-training-with-the-bumblebee-conservation-trust-teesdale-pollinator-surveying/ LOCATION:Bowlees Visitor Centre\, Newbiggin\, DL12 0XF CATEGORIES:Bowlees Visitor Centre events,Volunteering ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://northpennines.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Red-tailed-bumblebee-on-devils-bit-scabious-Ruth-Starr-Keddle-NPAP.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="North Pennines National Landscape":MAILTO:communications@northpennines.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20240525T103000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20240525T123000 DTSTAMP:20260404T205544 CREATED:20240117T142348Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240418T123832Z UID:10000328-1716633000-1716640200@northpennines.org.uk SUMMARY:Saturday stroll - a guided walk DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided walk through a historic landscape at a relaxed pace on the last Saturday of each month. \nThe walk starting at Westgate\, on 25 May will begin at 10.30am and finish at approximately 12.30pm.

A geology talk DESCRIPTION:Why are the North Pennines so high? The answer lies in the rocks. Find out more in this talk by geologist Charlie Bendall on 7 May\, 6pm to 7.30pm at Bowlees Visitor Centre. \nThe North Pennines have the seven highest hilltops in the Pennines and more ground over 600m (2000ft) than the rest of the Pennines combined. There are sound geological reasons why this is so that will be explored in this talk. \nThis is one of three talks being given by Charlie Bendall as he walks the Pennine Way again to celebrate the release of his book\, “Pennine Way: A Geological Companion”. \nThis is a free event but space is limited so please book using the link below. \n\n\n\n \n \n\n\nNote: This event is led by an external speaker and views expressed are their own.
