All you want to know about urban “rewilding”
Have you ever wondered what “rewilding” really means? And how it could change a city as large as London? Or, how biodiverse our streets, parks, nature reserves and waterways could become if we challenge current anti-rewilding assumptions?
Join us for an evening with Elliot Newton, co-founder and Director of Rewilding at Citizen Zoo, as he shares how rewilding is already taking root across the capital. Elliot will take you behind the scenes of pioneering projects including the latest developments on the Ealing Beaver Project, the Get InVOLEd water vole reintroduction on the Hogsmill River, Rewilding Tolworth Farm, and Citizen Zoo’s work to help make London a white stork-friendly city. He’ll also explore how the rewilding revolution could transform how we see, value and shape the urban landscape.
Each rewilding project puts community at its core. They empower local people to play a direct role in bringing wildlife back and shape a greener, wilder London. You’ll hear how we can all get involved with such projects, from volunteering and citizen science to supporting local habitat restoration and community action. Come along and hear how we can rewild London – including Chiswick, together!
