Calderdale Badger Protection Society: A snuffle through the secret world of Calderdale’s Badgers
Saturday, 14th March 2026 • Hebden Bridge Town Hall
We are excited to welcome Cath Baker from the Calderdale Badger Protection Society.
Join us on an exploration of the fact and fiction of ‘our’ badgers, what happens when our worlds collide, and a chance to find out more about the work of our local badger protectors.
A source of fascination for many, these elusive animals maintain an air of mystery and wonder. Celebrated by many, vilified by others, meet the badgers whose land we inhabit, through the eyes of a volunteer with Calderdale Badger Protection Group.
A Badger:)
Cath has a lifelong interest and involvement in wildlife protection. She is a committee member of Calderdale Badger Protection Group and Halifax Scientific Society, a Trustee of Full of Joy Animal Sactuary and a Director of Bridestones Rewilded CIC.
Her badger obsession began when she spotted small conical holes in her lawn. Since that time 10 years ago she has fully immersed herself in the secret world of these magnificent crepuscular creatures. A social worker by day, but badger enthusiast by night (and weekends), her voluntary work has brought her up close with these iconic animals. She rarely lets life get in the way of badgers.
