Saving Biodiversity: The Essential Role of County Wildlife Sites
1 May 2025
An informative talk on Devon's County Wildlife Sites - what they are, how they’re identified, and their designation process. If you're a landowner awarded a designation what does it mean in terms of responsibilities, legal or otherwise? A question and answer session will follow the talk.
