Big Garden Birdwatch is the world’s largest garden wildlife survey. It is run by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. Every year, hundreds of thousands of nature lovers take part, helping to build a picture of how garden birds are faring. In 2025, a total of 590,000 people took part - and counted over 9 million birds!

The top 5 species recorded last year were:
* House Sparrow
* Blue Tit
* Wood Pigeon
* Starling
* Blackbird

This year, consider coming to All Saints' Churchyard to do your survey. It will help us see how we are doing at encouraging the birds in the Churchyard, with our all year round sunflower seed feeders under the yew tree.

How to take part
* Download the Guide attached here or from the RSPB website.
* Spend an hour watching the birds in your garden or in the Churchyard, between 23 and 25 January, and record the birds that land.
* Tell the RSPB what you saw (even if that’s nothing at all)! You can submit your results online or by post.

Lee Abbey is set on the spectacular North Devon Coast, in the Exmoor National Park. It is a Christian Community which provides retreats and holidays in a Christian setting. Each year, the Chalke Valley Benefice arranges a weekend away at this beautiful place. You are most welcome to join us.

This is an opportunity to see your old friends and meet some new ones, a happy, fun and inclusive atmosphere, good food, stunning scenery and a chance to think about faith. You can be as involved in all the activities as you wish or just take the opportunity to relax and be with friends.

We welcome everyone - and it is for all the family - some families come with three generations. So invite your friends and family, and let’s make this our 15th year a very special weekend. We are hoping to have 110 people in the main house.

What's included
* Accommodation on Friday and Saturday night
* All meals from Friday evening through to Sunday Lunch. A glass of wine with dinner on Saturday
* Talks by the Lee Valley team
* Prayer ministry, and Christ in Quiet in the Chapel
* A variety of walks from a gentle stroll to an energetic hike
* Tea time activities – craft workshop – men's discussion – prayer walk
* A separate programme for children
