Project Officer at Warwickshire Wildlife Trust says,”One
in four children has never been to the countryside [The Times 8 July
2008], so why not start to put that right by bringing your family to one
our nature reserves. As well as that, how about coming along to one of our
regular work parties. You’ll learn new skills and meet new people –
and, even more important, you’ll gain the confidence and enthusiasm to
improve your family’s experience of the natural world. Don’t be a
statistic!!”
