FRIDAY 29th AUGUST - BAT NIGHT

Rangers will run a Bat Night from 20.00 to 21.30. Ages 5 and above. Step into the park after dark! Look for night life using bat detectors to search and listen for bats and other wonders of the night. Torches would be very useful when the sun has gone down. Please - no dogs!

Following our successful Butterfly Hunt event yesterday we wanted to thank Peter Smart again for leading our walk, those who helped volunteer and the over 20 people who joined us.

We wanted to share these photos of some of the butterflys found (Small Copper, Small Heath and Comma) as well as photos shared by Sarah Coulbert of a Brown Argus and Common Blue butterfly that she took during yesterday's event.

Thank you to those who attended and helped make it a great event!

Jubilee Country Park is a new Green Flag Award winner in the London area!

https://www.greenflagaward.org/news/2026-award-winners-announcement/

To quote the Green Flag website "The award recognises parks and green spaces that are safe, welcoming and well-managed, setting the benchmark standard for recreational outdoor spaces around the world. Parks are independently assessed against rigorous criteria, including accessibility, maintenance, environmental management, safety, biodiversity and community involvement."

This has been made possible by support from Idverde/Bromley and those who volunteer with us, including our weekly Conservation Work Party.
