Overview

The Upper Ray Meadows Nature Reserve is a core part of BBOWT's Upper River Ray Living Landscape, a Wildlife Trust project to create space for wildlife and people together. Chloe Bradford, Volunteer Network Officer with BBOWT, will take us on a walk at one of its sites on the Upper Ray to see the meadows which are rich in a wealth of wild flowers. The visit will start with a brief talk on the site history, followed by a walk to the far end of the site (with a stop for coffee). Booking required by text please to RC at 07788 190170. Donations for BBOWT will be welcome at the end of the walk. Car sharing recommended. Assistance Dogs only. TW Walk Leader RC 07788 190170 / 01844 213608
