Wildlife is too important to ignore in the EU referendum debate!
The Wildlife Trusts are not recommending how people should vote, but whatever your views, please consider the implications for wildlife and the environment. Read more here - www.ywt.org.uk/Wildlife-and-the-EU

It is not for YWT to wade into the European Referendum debate – there are so many reasons as to why one may or may not want to be in Europe, it would be impossible to base any decision on nature conservation alone.

Would your class or school like to take part in 30 Days Wild? We are inspiring everyone to reconnect with nature by doing something wild every day across June. It can be as simple as feeling the grass between your toes or as immersive as discovering what lives in a pond. School packs are flying out the door, so sign up today if you fancy getting involved! goo.gl/6CSCfK

Thanks to funding from Biffa Award we now have a lovely greenhouse! This will make a huge difference, allowing our volunteers to grow lots of interesting vegetables from seed and wildflowers to plant in the garden. The pond is also really starting to take shape! http://www.biffa-award.org/
