Field Trips and Holidays
Hello Members and Friends of The Preston Society
I am writing to inform you of an early Christmas present for you all in that the Society has arranged two day coach trips for 2025.
Number 1 is to Saltholme RSPB on Teeside, a reserve set against an industrial back drop but with reed beds, wetlands and meadows and the Coastal Path running alongside the Reserve. A chance to enjoy
Avocets, water rail, terns, waders and wildlife.
Our trip is on Sunday 2nd March 2025 departing 7.30am from Penwortham.
The cost is £27 for Preston Society Members
£29 for non members
Entry to the reserve is free to RSPB members and 16-24 year olds and £6.00 for adults.
Number 2 trip is to Conwy RSPB at Llandudno Junction
Sunday 8th June 2025 departing 8.00 am from Penwortham
The cost is £23 for Preston Society Members
£26 for non members
Entry to the reserve is free to RSPB members and 16-24 year olds and £6.00 for adults.
Here we will be able to enjoy wildflowers including orchids, dragonflies as well as nesting birds with their young on the lagoons or waders on the mudflats and saltmarsh of the Conwy estuary and should you
tire of the birds you can always visit Conwy Castle which is less than a mile from the Reserve.
Both reserves have toilets, visitor centre, cafe and shop facilities.
We require a minimum of 30 bookings for each trip to be viable so get yourself an early christmas present for yourself and invite your family, friends, neighbours or anyone you know who shares our interest in birds flora and fauna and get them to come along and enjoy a fun day out.
We are now ready to take your payments for both trips. Our preferred method for payment is by bank transfer to our Barclays account Sort Code 20 69 85 Account number 70727849 reference with your name and trip 1 and/or trip 2.
Many thanks in anticipation of your support to the Society
