Making nature count
Wildlife recording in Sussex and the work of Sussex Biodiversity Record Centre
In Sussex there is an incredibly active and energetic network of people involved in monitoring and recording our county’s wildlife. This community generates hundreds of thousands of wildlife records every year – constantly adding to our collective knowledge of Sussex’s species and habitats.
For more than 20 years, Sussex Biodiversity Record Centre (SxBRC) has worked in partnership with this amazing volunteer community to collate, verify and manage all these records, turning the data into easily accessible information. These services help to inform planning policy and decision-making as well as nature conservation initiatives across the county.
In this talk Clare Blencowe, manager of SxBRC and an enthusiastic biological recorder herself, will share some stories from the Sussex biological recording community, explain how you can get involved, and provide an overview of how this information is used in SxBRC’s services.
This is an online talk held via Zoom. Details will be sent following registration.
