During the past ten years or so, a number of people helped me to keep an eye on the Red Rocks Reserve. Each month, one of us walked round the reserve to check that everything was in order. Cheshire Wildlife Trust and Wirral Council Rangers were notified of any adverse changes such as damage to the boardwalk or evidence of fire. We collected litter, helped with natterjack monitoring and made notes about flowers such as orchids, birds and other wildlife.
A big thank you is due to all who contributed in this way to the up-keep of the reserve, foremost to Elspeth Dutch, Gill Norton, Ann and John Neal who covered the latter years.
No doubt we’ll continue to enjoy strolls - albeit informally - through the now expanded Red Rocks Marsh Reserve, across the dunes, along the saltmarsh and around the reedbed.
