Jelley, Reserves Volunteering Officer at Warwickshire Wildlife Trust says,
“This
is a wonderful time of year to come and enjoy our reserves and, as well as
appreciating them in their full summer glory, this guided walk is a great
opportunity to learn more about Welcombe Hills.. Nature Reserves don’t
manage themselves, however, so anyone who can come and help with the work
party at
Kenilworth
Common will be very welcome. You’ll have a great time, and benefit your
local environment into the bargain.”
