For the past 5 years the Bedfordshire Bat Group has been working closely with BCT on the Count Bat outreach project. We were one of their pilot projects and have been doing follow up work ever since. Count Bat Project
The project is coming to an end soon and the Count Bat Team is putting together an amazing pack of resources which will be available to people doing bat outreach.We have to declare an interest as we have provided a lot of material.
Yesterday, BCT ran a seminar to share ideas on education and public engagement about bats. Jude gave a talk on our work with the Priory Rangers and then co ran a workshop with Kim from Wonky Giraffe on making bat themed things with kids.

The participants had great fun giving their “inner child” full reign with lots of bright shiny things to play with
Look what we made. (Mine was a lot wobblier than this) Photo Jude Hirstwood
It was great to meet so many people involved in this sort of work and to have a chance to play with scissors..
