Key Details: What: A guided walk through the wetland reserve to see and hear the native bats at dusk. When: Thursday 25th September 2025 at 18:30 Where: Meeting/parking at Camelot Rugby Club, then heading to the Gadespring Wetland Reserve, which is a 2 minute walk away. We will set off from the car park at around 18:45 Who: Any males (aged 18+) in Bucks & Herts who are able to attend How much: all of our Hector's Gentle-Man's Club events are free of charge! What to expect: Gathering at the Gadespring wetland reserve just as the sun sets, the bats will be beginning their nightly hunting. We'll be able to see them flying around, learn about the different species and their habitats and most excitingly of all. We'll be able to hear them. We're being provided with bat detectors that convert the ultra sonic bat calls into frequencies we can hear. After a good walk around we can take the time to talk, and catch up on how everybody is doing. There is no pressure to share anything you're uncomfortable with, but all conversation is strictly confidential. It is our hope that you can leave with a sense of improved well-being. We look forward to seeing you there, if you have any questions please contact Declan at Declan@hectorshouse.org.uk Please note we plan to be outside for the duration of this event, so remember to bring appropriate footwear, clothing & a torch. About Hector's Gentle-Man's Club: HGMC is a safe space for men in the area to come together once a month to try new activities, meet new people and have a safe space to be themselves. This group is organised by the local charity Hector’s House – and will be facilitated by our co-founder Robert and campaigns/events assistant Declan. Each month we will be doing a get-together – be it going for walks, having a kick-about, or trying out activities such as woodwork or foraging. We might even sneak a cuppa in at the end. This is totally free of charge – and welcome to anyone that identifies as male over the age of 18.
