This helps us keep track of who to expect, and whether we need to wait for anyone who is running late.Why is citizen science important?It’s difficult to protect wildlife without understanding it well. To conserve a species, we need information about its population, habitat, and behaviour—and to track how these change over time. Gathering all this data is challenging, and scientists can’t collect enough on their own.Citizen science helps fill this gap. By involving volunteers, conservationists can gather far more information, for a wider area.Participating in citizen science is a great way to learn about wildlife while also contributing to its protection.📸 Cover image: ©Matthew Roberts - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/cumbernauld/bat-walk/100001986414689810 - **Event Categories**: science-fair, meetups, workshops, dog - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Cumbernauld - **state**: SC - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Cumbernauld Glen Wildlife Reserve - **lat**: 55.9612877 - **long**: -3.9745557 - **full address**: Cumbernauld Glen Wildlife Reserve, Old Glasgow Road, Cumbernauld, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Bat Walk - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/d7f076f6681ad2adc6c1f0a6f3b74246016aa3cdc6ab84185ed78a033e8766cf-rimg-w1200-h600-dc010501-gmir.jpg?v=1776841845 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Bat Walk being held? - **A:** Bat Walk takes place on Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 pm to Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 pm at Cumbernauld Glen Wildlife Reserve, Old Glasgow Road, Cumbernauld, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Bat Walk? - **A:** Bat Walk is organized by Cumbernauld Living Landscape. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
