On our Nature Reserves
Winter can be a busy time on our nature reserves as
work such as hedge laying and woodland
management such as coppicing or tree felling is
best undertaken now when trees are dormant. Our
work parties – bands of dedicated volunteers – head
out into grey winter mornings and warm up as they
work together to ensure these wildlife havens
remain just that.
On the High Street
Don’t forget there’s an easy way to support wildlife
this winter – by supporting our Ledbury charity
shop! As well as pre-loved items, we stock Christmas
cards, bird food and a range of wildlife-themed gifts.
We are also currently recruiting for volunteers to
help to serve customers and sort through donations
– maybe this could be your New Year’s Resolution?
