Getting there

For this session we're going to meet at the task, so you'll need to make your own way there. We encourage you to walk, run, or cycle to do so!

    About this session

    January 21st is Squirrel Appreciation Day in the UK.

    You can show your appreciation of our wildlife friends by taking a run, walk or cycle to a park or woodland where squirrels live in the trees.

    Take some monkey nuts, watch their antics, appreciate the peace and beauty of winter trees, and litter pick the area while you're there.

    This can be at any time that suits you on 21st Jan, but remember the squirrels settle down to sleep at dusk!

    Take some photos to share on the report.

    What to look out for

    Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.

    This is a GoodGym community mission. When we're doing a community mission we make our own way to the task, so you can choose to walk, run, or cycle. Thinking of cycling - check out our FAQs

    This session is organised by your Taskforce, a group of experienced GoodGym members in your area. They are not responsible for your safety. You should feel confident to participate in the session as it is described and you do so at your own risk.
