Our Assistant Warden from RSPB Rainham Marshes was delighted to support the Bird Box and Planter Event at the Community Hub. 🐦🌱

It was great to see local residents getting involved, creating homes for wildlife and learning more about how we can all help nature thrive in our communities.

The event was a great success, with lots of enthusiasm, creativity and community spirit on display throughout the day.
