Are you eager to boost local biodiversity but feeling overwhelmed by all the sheer volume of information and advice? Perhaps you want to attract butterflies, bees, birds or dragonflies to your garden? Did you know that winter is an important time to support wildlife and support the natural ecological balance of your garden ready for spring. So lets help you get started this winter... 

Join this one-hour Master Class with Claire Bickle and walk away with the essentials—and the networks—that will help you make a real impact. 

In this session, Claire will guide you through the importance of: 

• Understanding your climate 
• Getting to know your soil and garden aspects and how to make use of verges or nearby public spaces 
• Simple design basics and practical ideas to get you started 
• Identifying your “target audience”—the insects, marsupials, birds, reptiles, frogs, bats and more that may call your garden home 
• Choosing the right plants and layering them from ground covers to grasses to trees 
• Different water sources and why they matter for different species 
• Creating shelters, especially for insects like bees and dragonflies 
• Why even small actions can create wildlife stepping stones and nature corridors in urban areas 
• Building community connections: where to next—catchment groups, wildlife societies, native plant clubs, and more 
• Ways to stay informed and keep learning through reading and connecting with others 

If you want to support nature in your neighbourhood and feel confident doing it, this class is the perfect place to start.
