Thanks to the dedication of our incredible volunteers, a once-neglected patch of land has been transformed into a thriving haven for wildlife, and a welcoming green space where the local community can reconnect with nature.
The newly created Woodland Walk is designed to support biodiversity, enrich the local ecosystem and provide a peaceful, freely accessible conservation area for everyone to enjoy.
Features of the Woodland Walk include:
-
A wildlife pond

A calming sensory garden

A purpose-built outdoor learning lodge for education and exploration.
