About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Join us to get involved in the Tiny Forest Wildlife Count and help track how your local Tiny Forest is supporting wildlife.

Tiny Forests are being planted across the UK, and bringing nature to cities. Have you checked if you have a Tiny Forest near you? The count is a simple wildlife survey across the 200+ Tiny Forests in the UK.

Tiny Forests contribute to environmental and human wellbeing, and the science behind it is exciting, simple and straightforward, made to be done by communities and people of all walks of life.

This webinar is an opportunity to learn how you can monitor the biodiversity in and around your Tiny Forest. Our biodiversity surveys a variety of groups: pollinators (like bees and butterflies) and ground dweller invertebrates (like earthworms). This data will help us bring the benefits to more communities, helping both people and wildlife thrive together.

We will talk through our methods, resources and why Tiny Forests biodiversity is important. We will make sure to leave plenty of time for your questions.

No previous experience on the topic is required! You are welcome to watch a pre-recorded Biodiversity training ahead of this session and bring your questions with you. Head to Earthwatch Europe’s YouTube playlist to find the training video. Once you have attended this session you will be ready to head out and start monitoring. Perfect timing ahead of Tiny Forest Wildlife Count (previously biodiversity week) taking place 17th May - 1st of June 2025.



The webinar will be hosted on Zoom, and a joining link will be shared 48 hours before.
