Protecting our Pollinators

Tickets £6 on the door-no need to book- All welcome.

Peter’s illustrated talk focuses on the pollinators of the UK and some of the problems they face with a particular focus on honeybees- and all the associated stories and traditions associated with bees and honey- but also bumblesbees and moths. The talk is designed to build awareness.

Peter is a beekeeper and experienced, amateur entomologist. Over many years he has developed a passion for the wonderful creatures and all the other pollinators that we share our gardens with. He also knows there’s still a lot to learn. He also has been recording moths for twelve years and in that time has recorded over 400 species in his back garden- moths really are a secret world waiting to be discovered. He also provides ‘moth mornings’ with the Surrey Wildlife Trust and local community and wildlife groups where they meet round one of his light traps to see what they’ve caught before releasing them.
He works closely with the Bumblebee Conversation Trust and is currently mapping bumblebee populations on the North Downs.
