Women-only Walk at RSPB The Lodge
Monday 09th May 2022 13:30 - 15:00
Join us for a women-only guided walk at The Lodge, taking in seasonal sights and sounds. The walk will be led by some of our female RSPB volunteers, who will share their knowledge and enthusiasm for nature.
This is an adult-only walk. Sadly the walk will be over uneven terrain and is not suitable for wheelchair users. If you have mobility issues, please contact us before purchasing a ticket.
Please meet in the picnic area.
Why Women-Only?
Many women in the UK have sadly experienced harassment at some point in their lives. We know that going out alone into the countryside is something that many women don’t feel safe to do. As a way of supporting women to both feel and be as safe as possible on our nature reserves, we are putting on some events that are exclusively for them. These events won’t be to everyone’s taste, but hope it will allow those, who might not otherwise feel safe, to experience nature in a friendly and safe space, removing some barriers in the process.
We hope to develop these walks based on the feedback received by attendees so that more women may feel welcome.
Tickets are £2 for members and £3 for non-members.
The ticket does not include parking (£6 all day for non-members, members park for free).
