Dawpool Wildflower Planting














50 more wildflowers were planted on Sunday 9th September to continue celebrating 50 years of Cheshire Wildlife Trust. The plants went in at Dawpool Nature Reserve, Wirral Country Park, near Thurstaston.

Dawpool is a former waste tip, which Rangers are managing for wildlife and people. The wild flowers will help brighten up the more grassy areas for invertebrates and visitors. The plants were funded by Wirral MBC Tourism Dept as part of the Year of Coast and Countryside.

Your next chance to join in and help to plant more wild flowers is at Bidston Moss on Saturday 15 September at 2 p.m. Meet in the car park in front of the Materials Recycling Facility, Wallasey Bridge Road (entrance between the entrance and exit to the Household Waste disposal site. Grid ref: SJ 297907). If coming by train, bus or cycle, meet at end of signed footpath access to Bidston Moss, on Wallasey Bridge Road next to exit from Household Waste site. BOOKING ESSENTIAL: telephone 0151 327 5923. Ideal for families.
