This day’s course for Parish Councils, Neighbourhood Plan steering groups and Local Community Groups will explore ways in which your parish can contribute to creating a wilder Suffolk and ensure greater protection for nature, now and in the future.
The course will take place in the historic town of 
Hadleigh
, which benefits from several green spaces and a river walk within easy reach of the venue and the town centre. During the day, you will learn about where to find evidence of the habitats and species already present in your parish by undertaking a desktop search, which will then help identify opportunities and guide priorities. We will discuss the concept of green corridors and their importance for wildlife and explore the local parish to see where corridors could be created between existing wildlife sites.
Following your time in the Pavilion, you will be taken on an exploration of some green spaces, where we will uncover the truth of the information revealed in the desktop search. We will also touch upon planning policy including Biodiversity Net Gain and how this could affect your parish, Neighbourhood Plan, or Biodiversity Action Plan.
This course will provide an opportunity to ask specific questions about your parish and how to take forward plans to support wildlife where you live.
Tea and coffee will be provided throughout the day. Please feel free to bring your own re-usable mug, or a flask.
You will also need:
A packed lunch
Notepad and pen
A camera, binoculars, hand lens and field guides if you wish;
Please dress suitably for the weather and for a walk around the local green spaces. The walk will be approximately 1.5 miles and will be adapted if the weather is unfavourable.
We are grateful to the community in Hadleigh and Hadleigh Cricket Club for making this course possible and for their support in sharing best practice and community engagement.
