SUMMARY:Humble heroes: the hidden world of hedgerows and their wildlife – 20th July 2022
DESCRIPTION:Book tickets now\nJoin us to learn more about the incredible world of hedgerows. From nesting birds to hibernating hedgehogs\, well-managed hedges can provide abundant resources for much of our wildlife. They form a key component of our natural heritage and provide many key ecosystem services and functions. Yet\, to maintain a healthy hedgerow network into the future\, we need to manage hedgerows according to their natural lifecycle. \nIn this talk we will cover: \n\nThe importance of hedgerows to wildlife and humans\nThe key features of a healthy hedge\nThe connection between hedgerow management and political and cultural shifts in society\nThreats that hedgerows have faced in the past and currently face\nThe natural hedgerow lifecycle and an introduction to healthy hedgerow management\nAn introduction to People’s Trust for Endangered Species hedgerow surveys.\n\nSpeaker: PTES Hedgerow Officer\, Sarah Barnsley \nDate: Wednesday 20th July 2022 \nTime: 7:00pm – 8:30pm \nCost: Tickets are free but we suggest a donation of £5 to help towards our conservation work.

SUMMARY:Hazel dormouse habitat management and hedgerow management – 23 August 2022
DESCRIPTION:Book tickets now\nHazel dormice are one of Britain’s most enigmatic species\, but they are hard both to find and study. This is because they are small\, they live in the tree and shrub canopy when active and they come out at night. They are also closely associated with old\, managed woodlands\, where they live\, and with hedgerows\, that they use as dispersal corridors. \nBriddlesford woods on the Isle of Wight is a private reserve owned by the People’s Trust for Endangered Species and managed for its mammal assemblage that includes hazel dormice\, red squirrels and woodland bats. \nPTES has been the lead conservation charity helping hazel dormice and we manage the national monitoring programme\, the dormouse reintroduction programme\, and advise both conservation groups and ecological consultants on habitat management. \nPTES also manage the Great British Hedgerow Survey which is the standard method of surveying hedgerows in Britain. On completion of the short survey which assesses the current condition of the hedge\, advice is provided for future management. \nBriddlesford estate is the the obvious place to run a one-day courses on the Isle of Wight on habitat management for dormice and hedgerow management. \nDate: Tuesday 23rd August 2022 \nCost: £30 per person \nVenue: Black Hut\, Briddlesford Woods\, Isle of Wight \nProgramme: \nThis course will be split into two groups. For 2 ½ hours one group will look at hedgerow surveying and management and the other will look at woodland management for dormice. The groups will then swap and the sessions will be repeated. The sessions will be led by Sarah Barnsley (PTES Hedgerow Officer) and Ian White (Dormouse & Training Officer). \n  \nThe programme is given below: \n9.30 am                            Introduction. \n9.45 am – 12.15 pm       Hedgerow/woodland management. \n12.15 pm – 1.15 pm        Lunch \n1.15 pm – 3.45 pm         Hedgerow/woodland management \n3.45 pm – 4pm               Round up and depart. \n  \nYou will be required to bring a packed lunch (tea\, coffee and biscuits will be provided). \n  \nGetting there \nThere will be minibuses leaving the Red Jet Terminal in West Cowes at 9am to take delegates to Briddlesford woods. Suitable Red Jet ferries leave Southampton at 0750 and 0825. At 4pm\, at the end of the course\, minibuses will return delegates to the Red Jet terminal to catch the 1645 or 1720 service back to Southampton \nIf you wish to take advantage of the minibus transport\, please let us know so that we are able to confirm numbers with the taxi firm prior to the event. \nThe cost of the minibus to and from the course is included in the cost of the course. The Red Jet fare is not. \nAlternatively you can arrange for your own transportation to the site but if you do this we regret that PTES is unable to assist with costs. If you require directions to the Black Hut please let us know. \nNo responsibility for persons not being collected as arranged\, missing ferries etc. will be accepted by PTES. \n  \nIf you have any questions\, please email Ian.white@PTES.org

SUMMARY:Healthy hedgerows: from the individual hedge to the landscape-level - 19th January 2023
DESCRIPTION:Book tickets now\nDate: 19th Jan \nTime: 6.30-7.30pm \nCost: Free \nVenue: Online \nDespite their humble appearance\, healthy hedgerows support much of Britain’s wildlife\, from winter visitors like fieldfares and redwings\, to bats\, butterflies and hedgehogs. They also quietly provide many different ecosystem functions and services\, including flood control\, carbon storage and pollination. Yet\, to keep hedgerows healthy and providing this multitude of benefits to wildlife and humans long into the future\, they need careful management. \nThis talk will cover: \n\nThe importance of hedgerows to wildlife\nKey ecosystem services and functions provided by hedges\nFeatures of a healthy hedge\nThe natural hedgerow lifecycle (based on the hedgerow management 10 point scale developed by Nigel Adams)\nAn introduction to the Healthy Hedgerows app\nHedgerow management from the individual hedge to the landscape-level\n\nIf you aren’t able to attend this online session but you are part of a group that would be interested in a hedgerow training session\, please contact Hedgerows@ptes.org for more information.

SUMMARY:Hedgerow myth busting – (So you think you know hedgerows?) - 6th May 2025
DESCRIPTION:Book tickets now for 18:00 time slot\n13:00 SOLD OUT – NEW TIME ADDED AT 18:00 \nHedgerows are an incredible habitat\, offering a wide range of environmental as well as on-farm benefits. But in a lot of ways they can be hugely misunderstood; \nIs trimming hedgerows unnatural? Is the flail killing our hedges? Hedges are a man-made habitat; not as good as a ‘natural’ one? Did hedges lose their value when we got barbed wire? \nWe will discuss the ENORMOUS wildlife value of hedges\, the many ways they benefit us\, their fascinating history\, how they’re holding up nationally\, (what condition are they in?) and how we manage them to ensure they reach their incredible potential. \n  \nDate: Tuesday 6th May 2025 \nTime: 13:00 to 14:30 \nVenue: Online (Zoom) \nPrice: Free
