Every wildlife record tells a story – but its real value comes when it can be brought together with thousands of others to build a picture of how our natural world is changing. Gino Brignoli, from the Glasgow Museums Biological Records Centre, will explore how local environmental records centres turn observations made by recorders, naturalists and community scientists into trusted evidence that informs conservation, planning and habitat management. From the field to the future, discover how your records can help shape decisions and make a lasting difference for local wildlife.
