The National Bat Conference 2008

12th-14th September, University of Reading

The Bat Conservation Trust invites you to join us for the biggest event in the bat calendar! The National Bat Conference will take place at the University of Reading between 12th and 14th September 2008, and we would love to see you there.

This year’s programme will cover many exciting and varied subjects, including assessing species diversity in woodlands and social calls in brown long-eared bats.

If you have never attended the conference before then do consider coming along - there’s always something new to learn, even for the most knowledgeable bat enthusiasts!
