About us
Wild South London is a community group which aims to raise awareness of local biodiversity and promote conservation and appreciation of nature. Through walks, talks and hands-on workshops, the group will educate and inspire local people on topics such as sustainable foraging and identification of plants, animals and fungi. They will also show people how to record finds to contribute to local biodiversity data - all while promoting the positive health and wellbeing impacts of engaging with nature.
Aims of Wild Walks:
- To introduce people to green spaces in South London
- To promote the health and wellbeing benefits of interacting with nature
- To help people meet other like-minded individuals and learn from one another
PLEASE NOTE: St George's mushrooms can easily be misunderstood for many other white mushrooms that are fatally poisonous. We do not recommend foraging for them unless you are 100% certain you know you can identify them correctly.
