Stories 
A good reaction from the local community was received following the first Dawn Chorus to be held at Croft Quarry.  10 people braved the early morning to experience the diversity of wildlife in the restored nature trail.  The community were so enthusiatic about the event, they have requested that we repeat the experience in 2011!

There are 47 local Wildlife Trusts across the whole of the UK, the Isle of Man & Alderney. We are working for an environment rich in wildlife for everyone.
