To enhance the local environment and increase wildlife diversity with the help of volunteers. We promote the importance of conservation at a local level, how it fits in within the bigger picture and its relevance in the modern era of global habitat destruction.

All practical work is within the core management plan for the estate and therefore designed to increase the diversity and enhance the quaity of the specific habitats.

All learning is very hands on, everybody takes responsibility and we learn through doing. We can then watch the benefits of our work over the coming months and years as wildlife diversity increases.
