We hope you are all keeping safe and enjoying the wonders of nature as they unfold around us. These are unprecedented times and we are aware that this will have a significant impact on many of you, our staff, volunteers and the people we work with.

We are taking action in line with government guidance to make sure that we, and you, all stay safe. All events, including volunteer conservation days, are now cancelled until the end of October. Plumgarths office and gardens, Gosling Sike Office and the visitor centre at South Walney Nature Reserve remain closed to the public until further notice.

You can access all our nature reserves on foot and are asked to follow guidelines on social distancing, which we are all now familiar with.  The car parks at South Walney and Eycott remain closed for now, but the car parks at Foulshaw Moss and Smardale are open and will be monitored.  If it is busy when you arrive at the carparks, please come back at another time.  Thank you.

In the meantime you can keep up-to-date with all our news, including wildlife updates from our reserves, when you sign up to receive our e-newsletter. You'll receive an e-newsletter monthly plus occasional emails as things happen.
