About the event

Felbeck Trust has won awards for its management of West Beckham Old Allotments over the last 7 years. Come along for a guided tour of this 4 acre site to see how it has been improved for the benefit of nature and local residents, after being used as a commercial market garden. This includes working with RSPB Operation Turtle Dove to encourage this endangered species to breed here.

This workshop is part of a programme specially designed to support individuals, communities and groups acting for nature in their local area. Workshops are subsidised by donations made to Norfolk Wildlife Trust. View the full programme here.
