Our current Chairperson is sadly stepping down at the next AGM, so we are looking for a new person to fill this very important roleChairperson: responsible for ensuring that the Committee functions effectively, that there is full participation during meetings, that all relevant matters are discussed and that effective decisions are made and carried out. Between meetings the Chairperson will need to keep in touch with other committee members and see how the things that they have committed to do are progressing. The Chairperson may from time to time need to represent the group, or find the most suitable representative from the group as a whole, depending on what is required (e.g. introducing a speaker at an event or talking about the work and objectives of the group). If you would be interested to learn more about the role then please contact the Jersey Bat Group: enquiries@jerseybatgroup.org ... See MoreSee Less

We had another bat capture/release session at St Ouen's Manor last night. Great evening although not a lot of bats, probably due to the low temperature. Another good refresher! Thanks to Amy Louise Hall for the photos. ... See MoreSee Less
