Nature’s Corner

Nature’s Corner, held in the 1856 Café (https://hainaultforest.org/discover-the-forest/1856-cafe/), is a chance to come together and chat about all things wildlife at Hainault Forest and further afield. Open to everyone that has an interest in wildlife, whether you know a little or a lot! This informal event allows you to meet other likeminded people and learn something new! Each session, a few resources will be provided to spark conversations around wildlife sightings, news, and ways to get involved. We will spend the hour in the café but feel free to explore the forest before or after! Please note: There will be no Nature’s Corner on Sunday, 31 August. Nature’s Corner will continue on the 14 September, and fortnightly after.
