Only two months left to join the bat survey

We need volunteers like you to help us gather crucial data on local bat populations. By taking part, you'll be contributing directly to efforts to understand and protect North Somerset’s rich biodiversity. 

Here’s how it works: 

Visit the Bat Conservation Research Lab:

Choose your patch – Select a 1km-square survey area near you 
Pick up your kit – Borrow a bat acoustic detector from a local collection centre 
Start surveying – Place the detector in your chosen spot for six nights to record bat calls 
Share your findings – Upload your recordings to our online portal and discover which bat species are nearby.

It’s easy, fun and a brilliant way to connect with your local wildlife. 

Let’s protect our bats - one survey at a time!
