The objectives of the Liverpool Liverbirds
Wildlife Explorers group are to help educate children about
birds, wildlife in general, the countryside, and the issues that
affect the habitats that wildlife need to survive.
We do this through an active programme of indoor and outdoor
meetings, each month we hold one indoor and one outdoor
meetings.
All meetings are:
Open to all RSPB Wildlife Explorers members
Open to the general public (small charge for
Indoor Meetings)
Led by trained volunteer Leaders
Attended by a qualified First Aider
Risk assessed
All children are signed in and out of our
meetings, and a parental consent form and contact telephone
number must be provided for all children attending our
events
We make the learning experience 'fun' through
the use of craft activities, talks, games and quizzes, and by
taking groups of children to city parks,
our local countryside and nature reserves to
enjoy looking at, and learning about nature and various wildlife
habitats.
Visits to other areas are organised on a regular basis, on
these occasions parents / guardians are responsible for
transport to and from the meeting venue for the children.
Meetings are free
unless shown otherwise.
Please dress for
the occasion, wear plenty of warm, waterproof clothing and
footwear/, appropriate sun protection in the summer.
Facilities cannot
be guaranteed, so bring drinks and snacks as required.
If there's bad
weather phone Samina Farooqi Tel:

before you set out, in case we have to cancel the event.
Notification of field trips will be given well in advance
of the intended date of the trip.
