About Us

Colchester Local Group welcome members and guests at any of our activities. For up-to-date details, please see website.  Our programme of evening talks at the Shrub End Social Centre, Shrub End Rd, CO3 3SA, runs from Sept to April. We lead a number of varied guided walks throughout the year and hold our very popular annual Bat and Glow worm walk at Iron Latch nature reserve, Stanway, in July. Other activities include beach cleans, quizzes, plant sales, representing Essex Wildlife Trust at local events, visits, workshops and helping with local community rewilding e.g., the Greener Gardens Group projects. Locally, we have a friendly, growing group of active members who regularly volunteer to maintain and improve the local reserves.

For enquiries, feel free to contact any of the following committee members.
