SMALL WAYS TO MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE
Get to know nature

See nighttime wildlife
Learn about bats, owls and moths at Pensthorpe Natural Park’s night walk, Sept 9 and 16: www.pensthorpe.com.
Start planting
Plant some wildflower plugs now to get established over autumn and winter. www. meadowmania.co.uk.
Don’t cut back
When tidying up, experiment by leaving at least one border intact to provide food and shelter for wildlife.
