Haslemere Natural History Society

Overview

The Haslemere Natural History Society is a UK nonprofit organisation, established in 1888. It has been a cornerstone for naturalists of all ages in the area, providing a platform for scientific exploration and community engagement. The society is closely associated with the Haslemere Educational Museum and supports various natural history-related activities and projects.

Mission

The society focuses on promoting an interest in natural history, supporting local research initiatives, and fostering educational activities related to the natural world. Members participate in field observations, meetings, and special projects, contributing to the understanding and preservation of local biodiversity.

Activities

  • Indoor Meetings: Regular indoor meetings are held at the Haslemere Educational Museum, featuring guest speakers and discussions on various natural history topics.
  • Field Studies: Members often conduct field studies and surveys, such as the Haslemere Flora Project, which aims to document changes in plant species and habitat conditions around Haslemere.
  • Community Engagement: The society engages with local communities through educational activities and partnerships with other environmental groups.

Historical Context

The Haslemere Natural History Society was established at the same time as the Haslemere Educational Museum, reflecting a shared interest in science and nature in the late 19th century. Over the years, it has maintained a strong presence in the region, contributing to local natural history knowledge and conservation efforts.

Notable Members

Margaret Hutchinson, a long-standing member and expert in plant galls, was active in the society for over 74 years. Her contributions to natural history include a dedicated column in local newspapers and significant research on cecidology.
