CUMBRIA Wildlife Trust is running a series of webinars to teach gardeners how to encourage pollinators.

The charity is running a series of four online sessions in August and September to teach bee- and butterfly-friendly gardening.

Helen Shipton-Smith, an experienced gardener will lead the events, teaching the basics.

No prior knowledge is required and participants will be able to put their pollinator-friendly garden on an online map.

The four webinars will be aimed at people living in Carlisle, Maryport, Whitehaven and Workington, as these are the areas that the Get Cumbria Buzzing project is focusing on.

Numbers are limited booking is advised
