Sea Changers ~ The Sea Soarers

This event is one of our SEA CHANGERS Workshops that are running throughout Summer 2024. These workshops are thanks to funding from sea-changers. You can find out more about the wonderful work that they do here at: https://www.sea-changers.org.uk/ 

This particular event will be focused on coastal birds. Although July isn't the best time of year to see migratory birds, there should still be some to spot and you can still learn lots about their habitat and potential threats to wildlife. 

During the workshop there will be opportunity for you to play you part as a good citizen and help to pick up any litter lying along the foreshore than can endanger our coastal wildlife. For this reason, please book spaces for everyone attending, including adults, so that we can arrange to have sufficient litter picking equipment.

You will also be able to engage in a marine-bird themed craft activity as well as other outdoor fun and games. 

The event is an outdoor event in a relatively exposed location, so please dress appropriately for the weather on the day whether this be sun protection or wind and rain protection! 

Please note: You will not find RSPB skinflats advertised on their website. This is because the site is primarily for wildlife and is not set up to faciliate significant visitors without risk of disturbing the wildlife. We have permission to use this site for educational purposes but please be mindful of your actions when attending the session.

There is a small car park which will be available on the day. Detailed instructions of how to get there will be sent directly via email to those attending. 

The event is aimed at families although anyone is welcome. A safety talk will be provided at the beginning of the session but please be mindful that you will be close to the River Forth, when deciding whether it is appropriate for you to bring toddlers/young children with you. UTT staff will facilitate activities but parents/carers will be responsible for supervising any children in their care. 

If you book and then find that you are no longer able to attend, please let us know so that we can make the spaces to others on the waiting list as soon as possible.

If you have any further questions, please email judith@underthetrees.co.uk
