Bedford Local Group
The Bedford Local Group is run by a committee of local people, who are also members of the Wildlife Trust, to help further the aims of the Wildlife Trust in the area.
The Bedford Local Group organises two events each month; one on the morning of the first Wednesday, and the other on the evening of the second Wednesday. Everyone is welcome to attend.
It’s not necessary to be a member of the Wildlife Trust to attend events, however, if you do join your annual subscription directly benefits local wildlife.
For all events and activities organised by the Bedford Local Group, please see What's on?.
For further information, including details of how you can get involved in the group, please contact Marion Hession on 01234 870321.
