The regional meeting will be held at The Leeds Discovery Centre. Situated close to the centre of Leeds and the Royal Armouries Museum, which is very well signposted from the motorway network as you approach Leeds. The Discovery Centre is a brand-new facility which houses the natural sciences collections, amongst others, of the City’s large and varied holdings.

In spite of the profusion of visitor centres, country parks, Major Oak and stately homes, the Sherwood Forest and Dukeries area of Nottinghamshire is not well recorded as far as molluscs are concerned. This visit to the Sherwood Forest Country Park aims to lighten this mollusc-recording black spot. We will give particular attention to searching for Malacolimax tenellus. This species is known only from two other sites in the county - both a few kilometres away, in diametrically opposite directions but still within the old forest and parkland area of the county. 

Meet at 10:30 h in the car park in Pateley Bridge on the south side of the river, grid ref. SE 157654.
