Recorders of the Avalon Marshes
Exploring nature’s secrets, one observation at a time
What we do
Learn
New skills in identification and recording are critical for helping protect our wild places. We can only protect what we love and we can only love what we know. Seeking knowledge is one way we can protect the UK’s wildlife.
Record
Recording of data is one of the most powerful things we can do for nature. The collection of data over time gives us an overview of how species are reacting to management and climate change.
Share
Data is no use unless it’s in the right hands. The data we collect is transferred to land owners, and local and national organisations, such as Natural England, who can use the data to adjust management regimes.
No matter your level, RoAM can benefit from your involvement
RoAM is made up of a mix of experts, keen amateurs and beginners. Members events are friendly and relaxed and everyone learns something from every session.
