Wild Ground

Wild Ground Based in North East Wales, working to engage, inspire and enthuse local communities, acting together to protect wildlife, enhance habitats and eco-systems.

Wild Ground started off as a local interest group campaigning for retention of green space for people and wildlife and are now a charity operating throughout North Wales. Based at Tanyfron near Wrexham, we own and manage sites throughout the region. Most of these are mitigation sites that focus on the legally protected great crested newt, but are also home to a variety of flora and fauna. While ou

r primary focus is the protection of amphibians and reptiles, we manage all our sites to additionally benefit wider biodiversity and key species of conservation concern. Our access policy maintains a mix of closed and public access sites, to both protect sensitive habitats and facilitate engagement with the natural world. We work with communities through a wide range of education sessions, public events, training, and volunteering. Education and engagement activities with schools and families While this is funding dependant, include nature-themed crafts, wildlife walks, and practical activities like building bug hotels or bird boxes. Our training programme ranges from professional 2-day courses on Great Crested Newt Licensing to informal courses on wildlife ID and habitat management.

Can you help? ๐Ÿ“ฃ

Wild Ground is raising funds to support the restoration of ponds on our Glascoed nature reserve. Glascoed is a haven for wildlife, hidden away beside St Asaph Business Park, but two of the ponds are in need of help.

Good quality ponds are one of the simplest, most effective means of supporting biodiversity in the UK, but we need your support to carry out restoration.

For the next six weeks only, any donation is matched by the Aviva Foundation, doubling the value of your contribution. Any donation makes a difference, no matter the size, and weโ€™re also grateful for any shares to help to spread the word.

Our Reserves Officer got up close with a Nursery Web Spider at one of our reserves.

Did you know these spiders don't spin a web to catch their food, but use a quick sprint to capture flies and other insects?
