December is here! The first door on the advent calendar has been opened.

And so here are our Steps for December, modelled by our regional volunteer team, Annie, Zahra and Jane.

Please see below for more detail on December’s Steps.

 

 Do: With winter arriving we are preparing for Big Garden Birdwatch already! Make sure to feed your garden birds with as wide a variety as possible to get the biggest batch of birds for your bucks, flock of finches for your fiver, tribe of tits on your table...... www.rspb.org.uk/birdwatch

Give: Christmas is coming, the geese are....enjoying our wader scrapes. And it’s time to start buying your Christmas presents. Head to your local RSPB shop or peruse the RSPB catalogue to find all the gifts you could ever need. www.shopping.rspb.org.uk/

 Volunteer: Gena (our Community Fundraising Officer) is making glittery oats for Christmas! We need to sell as many packets of reindeer/bird food as possible to raise valuable funds for our conservation work. If you know anywhere that you could sell even a few packets, please contact Gena who will gladly provide you with what you need. They’ll be a real hit with the kids/nephews and nieces/grand kids. Contact Gena at gena.correalewardle@rspb.org.uk or 01603 697521.

 Campaign: With several of our campaigns taking a last minute re routing recently, our next steps are still being drawn up. Why not get up to date with our campaigning pages on the website www.rspb.org.uk/stepup2020 so you’re ready to take action as soon as plans are finalised.  

 Happy December everyone!
