Watch awards

Members of Wildlife Watch can take part in our awards schemes. We have two for different age groups - Watch Starlet for Under 8's, and the Watch Gold Award for ages 8-15. Both schemes aim to help children and young people develop their interest in, and understanding of, our environment and our place in it. If you love nature, exploring outside, helping the environment, learning about wildlife and making and drawing things then you've come to the right place!

Watch Starlets

Watch Starlets is a way for members aged under eight to get sticker stars and goodies to reward their nature activities. These could be things like feeding the birds, writing a poem about your favourite creature, making a den, growing a plant or making a collage. You can learn new things, and have lots of fun with your friends and family too.

If you're aged under eight and like helping wildlife, exploring outside, learning about nature and drawing and making things you'll love Watch Starlets!

Watch Starlets is only open to members of Wildlife Watch. Go to our membership page for more information on how to join.

Watch Gold Award

Members aged 8-15 can take part in Watch Gold Award.

There are eight challenges and for each you can earn a different brightly-coloured enamel badge featuring the Gold Award globe. When you have collected all eight you receive the exclusive ‘gold’ Watch badger badge and a signed certificate. You’ll also get a mention in Wildlife Watch magazine.

The challenges involve activities that can be adapted to reflect your own interests and favourite topics. Doing your Gold Award can involve arts and crafts, observation and recording, celebrating and performing, developing your skills, researching and campaigning, team working, media work and much more. Most of all we hope it will be really good fun to do and make you even more of a nature nut!

The Gold Award is only open to members of Wildlife Watch. Go to our membership page for more information on how to join.
