Fishlake and Sykehouse Actions for Climate Change

If you're enjoying celebrating #HeritageTreasures with @HeritageFundUK, don't miss our Trouble in the Woods seminar. We will be exploring new and emerging research on #woodland #heritage and #archaeology, and celebrating our ancient woodland heritage! ukeconet.org/titw2024.html

Help #stagbeetles this summer by providing deadwood in your garden. 🍄🌳 👉 stagbeetles.ptes.org/the-importance… Stumps, holes, rotting roots, dead limbs on a living tree and fallen trees are all forms of deadwood and each support a different community of fungi and invertebrates!

Fishlake and Sykehouse are home to a wonderful collection of ancient willow trees. These trees connect us to our history, heritage and culture. They contribute to the area’s distinctive character and are a fantastic wildlife habitat. #TogetherForOurPlanet #willows #ancienttrees

The Ancient Tree Inventory by @WoodlandTrust is a great way to protect old trees: we can all help by adding records. This video shows some of the differences between ancient, veteran and notable trees. Find out more on the Ancient Tree Inventory website: ati.woodlandtrust.org.uk

Please say no to pesticides and herbicides. Cocktails of these chemicals in fields, gardens, parks, verges and community spaces are poisoning wildlife including bees, birds, hedgehogs, butterflies, beetles, frogs, damselflies. They pollute our rivers. Let's give nature a chance.
