This intriguing walk will take participants on a route around the Wolseley Centre with the chance to spot all of the different nocturnal creatures on the reserve.

During the event, a guide from the centre will talk attendees through ID tips and how to use bat detectors.
The event is for adults only and people should make sure they are prepared as the walk will go ahead whatever the weather.
