The Heath & Hampstead Society fights to preserve the wild and natural state of the Heath; to maintain the character and amenities of Hampstead; and to promote the study of local history, natural history and conservation.
How will Hampstead Heath respond to climate change?
An expert walk co-led by Professor Jeff Waage, and the City of London's Head of Conservation, Jonathan Meares. Climate change is already changing the wildlife and the landscapes of the Heath.
