Put a date with a TV naturalist in someone’s stocking this Christmas

TV naturalist Mike Dilger is performing a series of shows at WWT centres around the UK from 25 January next year.

Tickets for the nine evening shows are selling fast and at £15 or less, would make a perfect Christmas present. They are exclusively available through WWT Wetland Centres and all proceeds go to the charity.

Mike is regularly watched by millions on The One Show. His energetic, down-to-earth style and encyclopaedic knowledge of the natural world appeal to wildlife lovers of all ages and interests.

Mike said:

“Starting on the 25th of January I shall be attempting what (to my knowledge) no human has ever managed – to visit all of the Wildfowl & Wetland Trust Centres in nine consecutive days.

"Every night I will be recounting the trials and tribulations of being a TV presenter, which I hope you can come to, but WWT haven’t let me off that lightly.

“Every step of the way, I’ll be on a whistle-stop wetland tour, meeting loads of people as, completing ridiculous challenges to raise money for wetlands and seeing some of the UK best winter wildlife. I urge you to come down when we come to town.”
