Dr Helen O’Brien is County Mammal Recorder for the VC55 area covering Leicestershire, Rutland, and parts of Derbyshire as well as chair of the local Mammal Group.  She has helped to co-ordinate records across the two counties for over 10 years and will provide an update on the distribution of mammals in the two counties – including some surprises!  Helen will discuss how data gathered by the Group and other sources has helped contribute to national and local conservation projects in the past, present, and future – and how people can get involved.
