What’s the Pitch in for Nature project all about?
The Pitch in for Nature project is all about creating homely environments for different types of nature and wildlife on site. We're giving nature a home and making sure that all sorts of creatures can thrive on our sites.
Loads of our sites have taken on the expert advice given by the RSPB, and are creating homes for bugs and birds, planting beautiful flowers and discovering an abundance of wildlife.
Our site at Great Yarmouth Racecourse has a vibrant collection of poppies and a small area growing wild to encourage flowers and insects.
We have red squirrels, deer and the likes of Great Spotted Woodpeckers and Treecreepers on site at Borrowdale, where there's also a bird house/feeder created from wood from the forest.
Nunnykirk is home to a variety of wildlife and members have seen the likes of Pine Martens, deer and pheasants on site, alongside many species of bird.
At Blackshaw Moor they've recently built a dovecote to sit alongside their bird houses and fantastic bug house.
White Water Park in County Durham have added bird boxes and hope to attract blue tits, chaffinches and goldfinches to nest on the site.
