June is all about getting closer to nature with the #30DaysWild challenge and there’s no better place to take part than Rutland!

30 Days Wild is a month-long challenge encouraging people of all ages to connect with nature throughout the month. Whether it’s spotting birds in your garden, enjoying a countryside walk or discovering wildlife at a local nature reserve.

From the peaceful shores of Rutland Water to our beautiful woodlands, meadows and villages, Rutland is the perfect place for wildlife spotting. Keep your eyes peeled for Ospreys, several breeds of wetland, water and migrating wader birds such as Avocets and Curlew or wander the woodlands to hear the dawn chorus. If you're really lucky you may even spot the elusive otters that call the reservoir home!

Ready to go wild this June?

This Volunteers’ Week, we want to give a massive shout out to our incredible Discover Rutland Committee and Discover Rutland Ambassadors.

Not all are pictured here, but every single one of our volunteers makes a huge difference by giving up their time to support, promote and champion our wonderful little county.

Our dedicated committee have shaped Discover Rutland into what it is today; from organising projects and planning events to spreading the word about everything Rutland has to offer, their commitment to Rutland makes such a huge difference.

Each year when show season rolls round, our team of ambassadors pull out all the stops to support us while we travel across the country. Their wealth of knowledge, pride and enthusiasm for the county shines and inspires people to discover everything we have to offer.

Today and everyday, we are so grateful for everything you do for Discover Rutland and our community.
