Make Space for Wildlife
Do you want to protect and safeguard the future of our local
wildlife?
Over the last 40 years in the Vale of Glamorgan, farming has
become more intensive and urban areas have expanded. As a result,
habitats such as meadows, hedgerows and ponds have been
significantly reduced.
Make Space for Wildlife is a series of leaflets produced
for schools, Community and Town Councils and members of the public
to help you enhance, create and manage areas for wildlife.
Creating a local wildlife area can as large or small scale as
you want and the Make Space for Wildlife leaflets are a great place
to start. Each one is jam packed with practical ideas from making
wildflower meadows to building bird boxes and homes for
hedgehogs.
The project has now ended by the ecology team may still be able
to offer help and advice. Please contact Richard May, assistant
ecologist by email: rimay@valeofglamorgan.gov.uk
or tel: (01446) 704855.
You can print off your own copies by downloading the Make Space
for Wildlife (MSW) leaflets (in PDF format).
