A Complete Guide to Garden Wildlife
With Luke Waclawek
OWR Founder
Saturday 3rd MAY 2025
15:00 - 17:00

Our gardens are not only an extension of our homes, but they have the potential to be homes to many different species of wildlife found here in the UK. Take the humble hedgehog for example, in theory our gardens truly are one of their last standings for their survival as a species. Yet despite this, many have never seen or had a hedgehog come into their garden at all.
There is a reason for this, and believe it or not, it will not cost the earth or require an expensive hedgehog house in order to make this happen. The same goes for our depleting numbers of garden birds.. but also, what about the insects? where have they all gone?
In this talk, Luke Waclawek, founder of OWR will talk through all the fundamental basics of just what a garden actually is and what we can all do to help our british native wildlife. There are some real tips and tricks here and hopefully this guide will help not just a few hedgehogs.. but potentially thousands of animals, birds and insects alike in the process!
​
Also, Luke has specifically requested that this talk is made completely FREE of charge to all under the age of 18 years. (They can make a booking via email)
​
Please note this is NOT a course teaching rehabilitation.
