Bat expert Chris Doubell discusses The World of Bats, looking at what bats need, where they roost, why there is a decline in all UK species and measures taken to protect them - including how we can help them. Chris will also talk about the eevolutionary development of bat orders and how tectonic plate movements slowly formed the pattern of continents we know today.

Regenerative farmer Matt Elphick will explain how he utilises and encourages insect, plant and animal diversity on his farm. He will explore the impact of this on carbon storage, soil and cow health, and the quality of our food. 

The CRT’s wildlife expert Vince Lea will look at a range of butterflies and how we can support their habitat. From holly blue butterflies in your garden to marbled white on our farms, Vince will look at a range of species and share what we are doing at the CRT to encourage biodiversity.
