Helping Out
Members can help with surveying badger setts or feeding grounds. You can also
help manually with the hard work of
Sett Protection work such as sett capping (where we protect a badger sett
so it can not be dug into).
You are also more than welcome if you could help at
Slide Shows and Talks in the evenings
to community groups and
at Fundays and Shows at Country parks, Fairs and Large
country/agricultural Shows to educate and inform the public
about badgers and raise valuable funds for the group.
We are always on the lookout for people who can help in an administrative
capacity too, so please Contact Us if you can spare
a little of your time.
We also provide help and advice in the following areas if there are any issues or problems involving badgers:
We recognise that occasionally badgers can cause problems of subsidence where
they excavate setts. Accordingly, we willingly work with landowners to minimise
any detrimental effects the presence of badgers may cause. Importantly, as
badgers and their setts are protected by law, we are limited by what we can do
at first, but it's always worth a call to us. However, if we need to perform significant works on or near a badger sett, we
are happy to apply for the correct Badger Licence from Natural England which is
needed before any significant building, fencing or other works can be started. Please Contact Us
if you have any badger-related problems. |
