Go Wild in your Garden

During the spring, we’ve worked with Northumberland Wildlife Trust (NWT) to encourage people to create more wild spaces in their gardens. We hosted a talk which brought together loads of ideas about what you can do and in April we ran a workshop in Vyner Park. Led by Natasha Hemsley from NWT, about dozen people spent a morning building a bug hotel, a hibernaculum as well as bat and bird boxes.
