Hedgehogs, Swifts and Martins: Bringing them back from the brink
- Date: June 10, 2026 - 8pm till 9:30pm

Urbanisation, tidy gardens, sealed fences and modern building materials have dramatically reduced the food sources and nesting sites that hedgehogs, swifts and house martins rely on. These changes — combined with the pressures of a warming climate — make it harder for these much‑loved species to survive in our towns and cities.
Join Barbara Polonara for an insightful Zoom webinar exploring the life cycles of these remarkable urban cohabitants. Discover what’s driving their decline, how climate and habitat pressures interact, and the simple, practical steps you can take to help them thrive — from creating wildlife‑friendly gardens to opening up movement corridors and supporting natural pest control.
