Zoology graduate and Conservation Trainee. Conservation of British species, especially Chalk Grassland specialists.
Had a great day presenting at and being part of the @OldChalkNewDown Project Conference today. I'm incredibly proud and privileged to have been one of their trainees and thorough enjoyed hearing about all the other achievements and successes of the project 🌿
I've started my journey to find 30 wildflowers before my 30th Birthday next year. Here's my blog for my first find, Common Sea Lavender 🌸
My 30 for 30 journey is under way after finding Common Sea Lavender at Gibraltar Point NNR back in August! Check out my blog below on my journey to finding it, plus all the other flowers I saw on that day. 1 down, 29 to go! 🌸✅ thesecreturbanwildflower.wordpress.com/2022/09/02/com…
This week for me marks a year in my #conservationcareer! 1️⃣ It's been a long road to get here but I worked hard to follow my passion and it has been so worth it. Definitely a success worth celebrating on #InternationalWomensDay
New Blog Post! As we move into spring, this weeks focus is on Lesser Celandine. A symbol of “Joy to Come”, this bright yellow flower is at it's best this time of year!

Snowdrops, not long left to find them 🌱❄️
New Blog Post! It’s nearing the end of the season for snowdrops, so get out and see them whilst you can! 🌱❄️ #snowdrops #urbanwildflowers #wildflowerblog thesecreturbanwildflower.wordpress.com/2021/02/21/sno…
More than just a weed... This weeks wildflower is up, Common Chickweed. Click on the link below to learn more about how chickweed can be a savour for pollinators and insects at this time of year. #urbanwildflower #wildlifevalue #commonchickweed thesecreturbanwildflower.wordpress.com/2021/02/08/com…
Winter landscapes and snow covered flowers are the order of the day ❄️ #winterlandscape #snowdrops #winterflowers #urbanwildflowers
Wonderful bright Crocus. The UK has no native #Crocus species, any you see will have been introduced and planted by hand at some point. This one was popping up on a road verge near the town centre. #RoadVerges #townflowers #urbanflowers
Incredibly lucky to live near a park that can support #Snowdrops. They are often associated with #Candlemas, celebrated earlier in the week on the 2nd Feb, as a symbol of hope and nearing an end to the winter. 🌼❄️
The first of this year's Lesser Celandine have begun to pop up. A sure sign of Spring on its way, and a welcome ray of sunshine on these dark and gloomy days 🌻☀️ #firstplantsofspring #lessercelandine
Want to learn more about the plants you see everyday? Or struggling to connect to nature because you live in an urban area? I have created this new blog to help with just those things! First plant post is up, keep an eye out on your walks! thesecreturbanwildflower.wordpress.com/home/
I finished my traineeship this week with the Old Chalk New Downs team. It has been an amazing 9 months which has zoomed by, and a great stepping stone to starting my career. Thank you to the team for everything!
