Join our Citizen Science Co-ordinator for a guided walk around Latimer Park, learning about research being conducted on the River Chess.

Latimer Park has been a great focus of our citizen science and research work, located downstream of Chesham sewage treatment works on the River Chess. Join us for a gentle stroll beside two parallel chalk streams of the River Chess at Latimer Park.

Explore sections of the River Chess and Little Chess which are not usually accessible to the public, and discover some of the wildlife which has already moved in.

Please ensure to book your place on the walk before Thursday 21st March, as we have to provide an attendee list in advance to the site manager.
