RSPB South East Essex Independent Lady Birders (ILBs)

This recently formed self help and social group has been set up for single ladies with an interest in birds and wildlife.

We meet on the third Tuesday of every month at the Belfairs Woodland Centre for a coffee and chat and some ladies walk in the woods together. A monthly newsletter is produced for the ladies who are unable to attend any function to keep everyone up to date with what is happening within the RSPB, the local group and the ILBs.

We are a mixture of beginners and experts when it comes comes to wildlife with some working and some retired ladies. We arrange outings and the very occasional lunch together and also endeavour to arrange transport for any ladies who cannot get to local group walks or coach trips where possible. It is not necessary to be a member of the RSPB but it is expected that ladies will join the Local Group which only costs £3.00 a year.
