Last month we learned that the IW Biodiversity Partnership had been nominated for and had in fact successfully won a new accolaide.

We’ve won an OPAL Biodiversity Champion 2010 award in recognition of the significant contribution we have made towards International Year of Biodiversity and for supporting the OPAL learning scheme.

The awards ceremony was held at the Natural History Museum in early November and our award was collected on our behalf by Bob Ford, from the Open University who joined us for ‘Go Wild in the Woods’ back in June and did a fantastic job running the species recording hub at the event.

Thanks and well done everybody!
