Evesham Bat Care

The purpose built 'Bat Barn' built from Cornish Slate and brick in 2022 near the A30 Cornwall by National Highways seems to be a success with a variety of species being monitored in the vicinity:- Lesser Horseshoe, Common Pippistrelle, Brown Long- Eared and Myotis.

we have a PROBLEM.
For years, a certain High Street fast food? establishment that rhymes with ... eggs ... would do halloween gingerbread bats. They are doing pumpkins this year and we are TRAUMATISED. We need gingerbread bats in our lives / mouth / bellies.

A vote for us in the Love Evesham awards will protect you from all these things though :)

If you are a bat person too then please give us a vote and or book your quiz night table 🦇🖤🦇

A date for your diary....get your team together (no more than 6 per team) and don't forget to book your table ASAP as these events are always a sell out!!

We really need your support in the form of VOTES please.

How about trying to wear one item of bat themed clothing each day in October? Or getting one person per day to give you their oral care stuff for terracycle? Or voting for us in the Love Evesham awards?

How are you celebrating Bat Appreciation Month? Here are some ideas:

🦇 Meet some bats batcon.org/bat-profiles/
🦇 Learn about bats batcon.org/blog/
🦇 Support bats batcon.org/join-us/
🦇 Take part in October 24-31

During October, more mating takes place, and building up fat reserves is becoming crucial to survive the winter season. Bats are seeking suitable hibernation sites, and beginning periods of torpor.

Shame but safety is everything. See you at the new date!

We regret to inform you that Wychavon have just advised us in the last half hour that they have decided to postpone tonight's outdoor cinema due to high wind conditions which are too strong for the outdoor screen.
Rest assured we are working with them to find a new date and will let you know as soon as we know the new date.
We thank you for your understanding and continued support, we are very disappointed not to be welcoming you this evening to our first outdoor cinema.
