Big Garden Birdwatch 2024 26th – 28th Jan.

What is Big Garden Birdwatch?

Big Garden Birdwatch is the world’s largest garden wildlife survey. Every year, hundreds of thousands of nature lovers like you take part, helping to build a picture of how garden birds are faring.

Spend an hour watching the birds in your patch, between 26 and 28 January, and record the birds that land. Tell us what you saw (even if that’s nothing at all)! You can submit your results online or by post.

We’ve created a guide of the top 10 birds you’re most likely to see, whether you’re watching from a balcony or a garden!

Sign up for #BigGardenBirdWatch so you can tell us which ones you see: https://bit.ly/488srm4

Sunday Indoor Market

Sunday Indoor Market

Introducing the Whitchurch Sunday Indoor Market – Whitchurch Sports & Social Club

There will be a limited amount of tables. Sadly as much as we would like people to just be able to turn up like they do at car boot sales, our space is nowhere near as big as their fields 🤣 so we would love it if people could message us via our Facebook page to book a table. It will be a first come, first served basis and once they are gone you will be put on a list for first refusal at the following months event.

For sellers there will be a cost of £5 for a table. You will only be assigned 1 table per person so please only bring what you can fit on or under 1 table. Please don’t bring any large items of furniture or any items too large as we need to be considerate of all the other sellers. Sellers will need to arrive from 8am to set up their table.

For buyers it will be free entry and there will be soft drinks and bacon rolls available to buy.
