Commencing on Saturday 4th February with Identifying Trees in Winter, 12 new courses have been added in the programme of 48, with the chance to attend our most popular days from 2011.

New courses include: The Ecology of Bumblebees; Advanced Lichens; Birds of Prey of the Stour Valley; Chalk Grassland Flowers; Seashore Investigations; Trees, Woods, Wildlife and People - an introduction; as well as two new geology courses and four new art courses.

The Trust’s Jill Evington said: “Beginners are very welcome and those with some experience will be able to improve their knowledge and identification techniques. We aim to create a relaxed, informal, atmosphere in which everyone can progress at their own pace whilst enjoying the company of like-minded people.”

Study days run from 10am to 3 or 4pm and most are held outside ‘in the field’, often on nature reserves.

Normal fees per person per day are £26 with £5 off for senior citizens, students, the unemployed and volunteers registered with Kent Wildlife Trust.

Many courses are very popular with places limited, so early bookings are advised. These can be made by calling 01622 662012.
