Melbreak Wildlife Group

The aim of the group is to provide an opportunity for anyone who is interested in wildlife and nature to get together – to share ideas and observations, learn more, and take part in activities large or small that benefit wildlife within the Melbreak communities, and further afield!

The idea for the Melbreak Wildlife Group has been brought about in response to the growing interest in local wildlife, which has been evident in recent hedgehog and swifts talks, and projects and activities around wildlife, nature and conservation that many people have been getting involved in locally.

By working closely with Parish Councils and established community groups such as St. Cuthberts Eco-Church, there is also an opportunity to help existing nature-focused projects, and work together to support our local wildlife, in a joined up approach.

We will use the https://melbreakcommunities.wordpress.com/wildlife/melbreak-wildlife-group/ webpage to share news and activities. Information will also be posted on The Melbreak Communities Facebook page. We have set up a WhatsApp group, for people to share their wildlife news! Get in touch if you would like to join by emailing David Gardiner davidj.gardiner@btinternet.com – you will need to include your mobile phone number and name.
