Do you help people to access parks, beaches, lakes, rivers, canals, woodlands, or nature reserves? Are you a staff member or a volunteer in one of these wonderful places? Or perhaps you are a landowner? On behalf of The Wildlife Trusts, Iain Broome and I are producing some resources to help more people access and enjoy blue and green spaces. We’re running two identical online workshops in August and would love you to join one to help us shape this work. There is already lots of research about barriers and enablers that affect access to green and blue spaces. To add to this, we’ll be asking you: 1. Do you have insights about specific groups of people within your local population who do or don’t use the spaces near you? 2. What guidance is already available about improving access? 3. What more can be done to help people access blue and green space? 4. Who else should we be talking to as we collate our research? Join us on: 7th August 10 – 11.00am  or 15th August 12pm – 1.00pm Register for The Wildlife Trusts workshop here: https://lnkd.in/eusjdfDN You can contact me directly with a PM Could you help us reach more people by sharing and tagging this post?

From migratory birds and waterfowl to white-tailed deer and coyotes, playas are a common stomping ground for many different types of wildlife. Restoring playa lakes not only provides a critical habitat for area wildlife, it is also one of the most effective means for recharging groundwater.

Preserving habitats for wildlife is vital for maintaining the balance of the forest ecosystem. That's why our foresters are trained to identify habitats like eagle nests on our land. When an eagle nest is identified, we establish buffer zones to ensure their safety and preservation. This is one way we are actively contributing to the health of our forest ecosystems. 🦅 Learn more about our efforts to safeguard eagle nests and protect wildlife in our forests: https://hubs.ly/Q02qDcms0 #nationalwildlifeweek
