Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
North London Bats
Dear all
I have recently resigned as Secretary of Lee Valley Bats, as did the Chair. I co-founded the group in 2007.
I'm well versed in bat ecology, mitigation and more, and continue to ensure bats are given special care in the borough, providing advise to the Council on, for example: creating wildflower meadows (as they attract insects for our tiny bats to eat); where to put up bat roost boxes; ways to reduce night time glare from street lamps, (which creates temporary blindness in bats and is a nuisance for most living things - including us!)
North London Bats hugely emphazises on education, through its community activities.
At the moment, the website is maintained by me and all activities led by me, but quite soon friend, ecologist and bat person, Charlotte Brennan, (previously the Chair of LVB), will be joining me. Together we will provide a number of services: school and other bat talks, nocturnal bat walks, bat surveys and more, including free telephone bat advice, on straightforward matters.
COMMUNITY BAT WALKS ARE FREE. They will be advertised on Haringey Online in due course. Email for more information.
The North London Bats website can be found at: northlondonbats.com
Advice line: 07888 875588 (10am - 3pm Mon-Fri)

Would bat walks n talks feature the New River off Wightman Rd?
It would be great if it could, after a meal out with a group.

Hi Matthew
Thanks for writing. Basically, we cover any of the areas mentioned on our website.
An organised bat walk for a group, would cost £40 + petrol.
All other walks are scheduled by us and it depends when we can get around to your area.

Fantastic. As we no longer have access to LVB's bat detectors, it will take a while to get some together. I'm going to appeal to L.B. Haringey as they have been helpful in the past, on voluntary community events.. As soon as we have st least one or two, I'll post community bat walks here. It'll be great to have your support. :)
