Dark Skies Talk (FREE)

Dark Skies coming to a village near you…

Join us on June 9th @ 7 pm Sonning Common Village Hall for an inspiring talk on how we can address light pollution and reclaim the beauty of the night sky! Light pollution robs us of the wonder of starlit nights and negatively impacts nocturnal wildlife, including moths, bats, birds, and pollinators. These disruptions have cascading effects on ecosystems.

Professor Richard Harding, a research scientist, environmentalist, and a former branch chair of CPRE Oxfordshire, will share his insights and practical tips on reducing light pollution to help restore balance to nature.Email: ecosocotalks@gmail.com to reserve your seat ***tickets to this event are free of charge but you still need to book as numbers are restricted**

Community walk, Sonning Common, Saturday 22 November 2025

A free event for BBOWT Community volunteers

Join BBOWT Community Network, EcoSoCo and nature expert; Nicole Clough, for a guided walk around Sonning Common. The aim of our community walk is to bring community volunteers together to explore similar themes, share skills and learn from each others experiences.

Our focus will be on improving biodiversity in a village setting. Together we will explore 3-5 sites around the village of Sonning Common to investigate and identify the opportunities to increase biodiversity at 3 village playgrounds, 1 commercial site and 1 community orchard.

During this friendly, slow paced, morning there will be lots of opportunities to discuss your own green spaces with Nicole and to hear about the work of EcoSoCo in Sonning Common.

In celebration of Great Big Green Week, EcoSoco held a screening of the hit move, Wilding at Peppard War Memorial Hall on Thursday June 5th 2025

The event was a huge success and completely sold out!
