Going Wild in BC
Kids’ Club

Kids Club update

Feedback from the youngesters involved in the Connexus-sponsored Summer Activities Workshop, and their parents was for the project to become a monthly activity.
One of the aims is to encourage young people to learn about and care for their local environment and to show how they can have an influence locally and take onsome responsibility.
The project is planned and led by Dan Hodgkiss, who is employed by Montgomery Wildlife Trust and is supported by a number of adult volunteers.
Through further fundraising (community apple pressing, Six Bells quiz, Christmas Ceilidh) there is now a regular monthly GWKC. Currently this is held on a Saturday morning at the Wintles woodland. There is a group of 10 – 15 young people who regularly attend.
The GWKC will continue monthly through until July, when the intention is to run a second summer holiday scheme.
We are going to run a free training programme for parents and volunteers this Spring so that they can play a more active part in the Club. This will cover simple first aid, environmental activities and DBS certification
