Sett Survey Events

Enstone, Nr Chipping Norton

Sunday 19th August

Next Sett Survey - 9.30 am, Sunday 19th August.

Meet up (same time and place as last weekend at The Drive, Enstone OX7 4NF (Grid Ref SP 3756 2458).

Easy to find, as The Artyard Cafe/Bar/Bistro is right on the corner of The Drive and the main A44 Oxford to Chipping Norton Road. (turn right, immediately before the Cafe, if coming from Oxford.) No parking restrictions on The Drive.

Just a few weeks left now until the threatened badger cull could start in Oxfordshire. We still have large areas of West Oxfordshire to survey for setts. Please assist us with a last big push to maximise our boots on the ground over the next two weekends. Come out and join us surveying, and do please keep monitoring any setts you know in your local area.

Usual advice on suitable clothing and plenty of water applies.

Help save lives.Simple

This long, hot dry spell is bad news for badger cubs and other wildlife. You can help save lives easily by acting on this advice from
Save Me today

We are asking all Badger groups and sett watchers to put out water near to sett entrances. Cubs (and all wildlife) will quickly dehydrate in these temperatures and will not feed if they become dehydrated. It is better to put out rehydration fluid rather than plain water.

A suggested formula for rehydration should be:

1 litre of warm water - for dilution

1 teaspoon of salt

1 tablespoon of sugar

Set out cold
