Let's see what we can all do about the amount of litter in our beautiful park!

Other things you can do in lockdown

Get out and about safely, and keep and eye on what is happening in the Natural World.

For example, you may come across a hibernating butterfly, like this Small Tortoiseshell, in the house or a shed. If you think it’s in a safe place, you can should leave it where it is.  Here’s some good advice from Butterfly Conservation:

AND REMEMBER – WHEN IN THE PARK
Keep a safe distance from other people at all times
STAY SAFE!
