For those of us living around Morecambe Bay, there's so much beautiful scenery and wildlife to see - and an exciting new project from the Wildlife Trust continues to give people a chance to learn and engage with the coastal environment around them. The Morecambe Bay ‘A Wealth of Wildlife Project’ aims to connect communities with the inland, coastal and marine environments through a series of initiatives that will increase access to the beautiful natural places between Fleetwood and Ulverston. Led by the Lancashire Wildlife Trust and in partnership with Cumbria Wildlife Trust, this project will run family events, walks and training opportunities for everyone to engage, explore and experience the wildlife delights of Morecambe Bay. Supported by Natural England through Access to Nature, as part of the Big Lottery Fund's Changing Spaces programme, this project will also be working in partnership with many other organisations and will encourage a greater diversity of people to connect with wildlife - and offers opportunities for people to take ownership of their local environment in the future. The project aims to provide training and resources to help people appreciate and protect the natural environment beyond the lifetime of the project. Here's a run down of some of their Morecambe Bay events over the next few weeks... • Heysham Hedgehogs Wildlife Watch monthly group (every third Saturday of each month) Saturday 16th July at 10 am - 12 noon Join the Heysham Hedgehogs who are getting arty and learning about different trees within Heysham Nature Reserve.
