Dormouse Ecology, Conservation and Woodland Management – Monday 22nd and Tuesday 23rd April 2024

During this online course (run over two afternoon sessions), we will look at the ecology of dormice, their conservation and relevant legislation. We will also consider woodland management for the species.

This course is an excellent first step for those wishing to get involved in dormouse conservation and it is recommended as a first step for those wishing to train for their dormouse license. It will not, however, provide you with a reference for your dormouse license application.
