New amphibian habitat at Wolvercote Lakes

We love funding projects that create new habitats for wildlife.

Supported by a grant from TOE with funding from Grundon Waste Management Ltd through the Landfill Communities Fund a new shallow wildlife pond designed as a habitat for amphibians and other species who do well in waters without fish has been created at Wolvercote Lakes thanks to the hard work of volunteers and the Oxford Preservation Trust.

Filled with rainwater runoff, the local fauna soon moved into this ideal new home. Each spring amphibians will breed and it will be buzzing with insect life like damselflies and dragonflies in summer.

Wolvercote Lakes is managed by the Oxford Preservation Trust.
