We inform and educate people about badgers and their needs in the following ways: Leaflets and newslettersWe produce a number of information leaflets about badgers, which we distribute at events, talks and so on. Our members receive copies of our newsletter, the Brockwatch Bulletin. DisplaysWe have a set of informative display panels which we exhibit at events such as the Northampton Green Festival, in libraries, and at our collections. Media coverageWhen there is a badger conservation issue which deserves wider publicity, we issue press releases and give interviews to the local media, resulting in articles in local papers, and features on local radio. TalksWe give illustrated talks about badgers to a variety of local clubs, societies and groups, from scouts and St John's Ambulance Badgers, to Womens Institutes and Rotary Clubs. Advice on badger problemsIn situations where badgers cause problems, for example digging holes in lawns, we provide advice and information. This website!Through this website, we can inform and educate people throughout our area and around the world about badgers, what we do, and how people can help. Badger watching eveningsBadger watching evenings are a great way to introduce people to badgers. For many years we organised watches at a sett near Daventry, and helped many hundreds of people to see badgers for the first time. Unfortunately the badgers abandoned this sett a few years ago and currently we are without a 'watching sett' to take people to.
