Events


Below is a list of our planned events.

From webinars to site visits, we hope you’ll find the events that we organise useful. Although we’ll post on the YRN forum, in social media and send updates by email, remember to also check back here regularly for the current list.

We record all of our webinars, so to view any that you’ve missed, click here.

If you have a topic that you know well, and are comfortable presenting, and you would like to offer it as a webinar, please contact us – we’d love to hear from you.


We’re delighted to launch this year’s programme of visits to rewilding sites across the region so get your diary out and start planning!

There are a bunch of new places to explore as well as a handful of favourites (that includes the Cropton beaver project which always books up fast!). It’s an inspiring mix – from neighbouring landowners rewilding together to a magical upland heath landscape and urban community gardens – there should be something for everyone. This is a fantastic opportunity to see rewilding for yourself and meet other rewilders in person.

In case you missed it previously, why not take a look a look at a snapshot here of last year’s programme made by Laura at Manto Films – it will give you an idea of what to expect.

So, whether you are new to the idea of rewilding and want to find out more, or you’re involved in rewilding some land already and want to chat to others about their experiences, you will be most welcome. We look forward to meeting you this summer!

All we ask is that you make a donation to support YRN which can be as little as £1 – what a bargain!

We are very grateful to all the individuals and organisations who have kindly offered to show you around their patch. The site visits also offer a fantastic opportunity to chat and share knowledge with other rewilding enthusiasts.
