Getting involved in wildlife

Bracknell Forest Nature Partnership

The Bracknell Forest Nature Partnership gives local people interested in wildlife the opportunity to discuss local issues, share ideas and get involved with protecting wildlife within the borough. It guides action towards achieving the Bracknell Forest Biodiversity Action Plan.

The partnership meets twice a year. If you are interested in attending please contact our biodiversity officer.

Wildlife surveys

We need your help to record information about any wildlife you may have seen in the borough using the Thames Valley Environmental Records Centre (TVERC) online recording service.

The TVERC collects and holds information about wildlife in the borough, such as protected species records and designated sites such as Local Wildlife Sites. We use this information to help direct the management of our parks and open spaces, maximising their value for biodiversity.

No previous experience is required and you can be involved as much or as little as you like, from casual recording to regular site monitoring. This is a good opportunity to gain experience towards a conservation career or simply learn more about wildlife.

Gardening for wildlife

One of the best ways to help conserve local wildlife is to make your garden more wildlife friendly. Our page on gardening for wildlife offers advice on some easy ways for you to help make this happen.
