A project to protect and improve pollinator populations and their habitat at Peel Park and the Coppice Local Nature Reserve in Accrington.

This project is helping to protect and improve pollinator populations at Peel Park and the Coppice Local Nature Reserve.

The Prospects Foundation is working on this project to protect and improve pollinator populations and their habitat at Peel Park and the Coppice Local Nature Reserve in Accrington. Many different animals can be pollinators, the notable and recognisable being bees and butterflies. Many other insect species also pollinate, like flies, moths, wasps, and more! We are aiming to preserve and boost the diverse network of pollinators that exist on Peel Park and the Coppice LNR, as well as boosting public awareness.

Robert Gabryszak, the Local Nature Reserve Project Officer, is co-ordinating a series of heathland and grassland management activities to improve biodiversity and tackle invasive species.

Grassland management will include further management work on Pleck Meadow which was acquired by Hyndburn Borough Council in 2018.

The project will also be offering activities for all to enjoy including, guided nature walks, species surveys, habitat creation, and more!
