Restoration grazing of chalk grasslands (Online talk)
Restoration grazing of chalk grasslands – Online talk by Sean Grufferty of Downlands Partnership

Book here

This online talk will focus on the work Sean manages for the Downlands Partnership Grazing team, that consists of two staff, 200 sheep, 12 cattle and 10 goats. They carry out grazing on 24 sites across the North Downs, with the aim of conserving and restoring Chalk Downland habitat. This is achieved by working in partnership with their stakeholders including local authorities, charities, community groups and landowners. They deliver both the grazing service in terms of animals and also helping to monitor the sites, carrying out regular visits and offering expertise on the grazing regimes that will best suit the objectives for the grassland.

The SLBI is a registered charity for botanical education. It supports people of all ages and backgrounds in learning about plants. By making a donation with your booking you will help to sustain our work with school children, families and the wider community. As a small charity, any amount you can give, large or small, will be warmly appreciated and make an enormous difference. Thank you.
