In April 2021 we embarked on ‘Wilder St Albans’ aiming to empower local communities in the District to take practical action to help wildlife on their patch.
Fast forward to 2023 and we’re proud to report that an incredible 200 plus individual actions have been reported back to us including:
- the creation of 34 ponds
- the installation of 42 swift boxes
- 5 streets becoming the first in Hertfordshire to be ‘Glyphosate Free’
- nearly two hectares of new meadow habitat created
- 150 water voles introduced back to The River Ver, and so much more!
These actions and many others are proof that there is a huge groundswell of interest to create a Wilder St Albans - and that is something we should all be proud of!
