Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page and learning more about NBC Bromley & Croydons, Bromley to Andover Cycle Challenge.

Why am I doing the Bromley Bike Ride Challenge?

Kestrel numbers have been in decline since the later 1980’s and we are in danger of losing Britain’s once most common bird of prey. As a keen falconer and wildlife enthusiasts I feel that we need to be proactive in ensuring that these birds remain part of the British Countryside.

 

As Area Manager of NBC Bromely & Croydon branch I am proud and excited to support the ‘Caring for Kestrels’ project and will be undertaking the Bromley to Andover  (B2A) Challenge.   I will start my ride from NBC Bromley Office 5 October, aiming to complete the 90+ miles over 2 days.  I will meet up with the NBC Head Office cycle team along the way.

 

NBC are proud to be able to join forces with the Hawk Conservancy Trust* (HCT) to help raise funding for the ‘Caring for Kestrels’ four year conservation study to preserve the UK kestrel population.

 

The Nest Box Challenge, part of the Caring for Kestrels program, is a two day event with teams installing 106 nest boxes over various sites.  Chris Packham (The Really Wild Show/Spring Watch) is president of HCT and will be hosting an event on the 14 October 2012 to mark the end of the installation of the boxes and to launch of the study
