Bring It Back is your chance to break free from the ordinary and reconnect with nature and history – right here in Old Amersham, based on discovery and exploration of wildlife and heritage around St Mary’s Church. This short, high-energy, burst of action project is all about exploring hidden wildlife, investigating the past, rediscovering a town space, and making a real impact. Think hands-on action: uncovering forgotten history, boosting local biodiversity, and bringing fresh life to spaces. No lectures, no dull tours – just real experiences, and a crew of like-minded people shaping something new. Ready to shake things up?
If you’re aged 18-25 and looking for a way to get together and make a difference, join Wild Amersham and Amersham Museum to get stuck in. We’ll be meeting every couple of weeks in Old Amersham. Get in touch to get involved and receive more details [email protected]
