Plover on the Move: Plover Rovers News |

|
Welcome to the April issue of our newsletter! As the weather gets warmer we are looking forward to being able to spend more time outdoors, and with the longer days there is more time to enjoy it, too! This month, we have an interview with one of our Long Distance Walker Bloggers, Will, to learn more about why he got involved, and how everyone can support the team of long distance walker bloggers on their journey by supporting their fundraiser! We are thrilled to have an article by artist Chris Kelly, who does incredibly intricate drawings while also raising awareness of the dangers of litter and pollution. Finally, our volunteer profile for this month is with Jack Thompson, who tells us more about his experiences in the environmental sector so far, including an unforgettable wildlife encounter in Costa Rica!
