Friends of the Wye volunteers took their display to Pann Mill open day to let visitors know about our important chalk stream and its wildlife.

The rather wet day didn’t dampen the spirits of the visitors who spent time looking at our ‘wet’ display. It showcased some of the wildlife species that make the river their home including bullhead fish, sticklebacks, and various invertebrate species.

Thanks to our volunteers, Colin, Ed, Natalie, and Steph for their help on the day.

Friends of the Wye volunteers took their display to Pann Mill open day and were pleased to let visitors know about our important chalk stream.

The day was cold but it didn’t dampen the spirits of the visitors to our stand.

We were particularly impressed by the interest and enthusiasm of the many children who spent time looking at our ‘wet’ display which showcased some of the wildlife species that make the river their home.

Thanks to our volunteers, Bill, Colin, Ed and Pete for their help on the day.

The area hadn’t been touched for some time and the team worked hard cutting down and raking brambles and nettles that were then built into piles for the Council’s contractors to remove later.

This section of the river is now more visible to visitors to the park, increasing its amenity value, although, sadly, the river is not appreciated by everyone and the team on Sunday had the unpleasant task of removing close on 40 bags of dog faeces as well as other rubbish.

Friends of the Wye volunteers took their display to Wooburn Fete, and enjoyed meeting and sharing information with visitors.

We had our usual wet display of aquatic invertebrates.

Thanks to our supporters: Bill, Colin, Mo & Mollie.
