The wildlife reserves in Rugby remain open, but please be mindful of the lockdown restrictions on outdoor exercise. The link to the full guidance for England is found here.
We are a group of like-minded mostly volunteer individuals from different Trusts, Groups, Societies and Councils who enjoy the local wildlife and wish to promote, record and enhance it. See our Reports and Minutes menu to get a flavour of what we do.
We hope to encourage people to use, appreciate and be involved in surveying and conservation activities around the area. By joining us to carry out conservation by sensitive and controlled management we will improve further the biodiversity of local sites, making them more agreeable for particular species. Please see our Volunteering page for guidance on how to join us. The dates for future conservation work parties are posted on the Work Parties page.
We currently do this with,
- Lectures
- Walks
- Planned Habitat management
- Monitoring
- Promoting via Press, Exhibitions and entry into Rugby in Bloom
To assist the Warwickshire Wildlife Trust (W.W.T.), Rugby Borough Council (R.B.C.), Butterfly Conservation Trust and land Owners, we provide financial assistance for W.W.T. by carrying out skilled work and other voluntary work.
The committed groups have held an informal A.G.M. in February for the past few years to exchange ideas, highlight achievements and focus on future requirements.
Please take a look at the variuos sections within our Reports and Minutes pages to get a flavour of what we do.
