This weeks blog will be focusing on typical events and the characters I meet within the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust...

Welcome to the opening 2019 blog from Open University (OU) students, Catherine Watson and Simon Winter.

During my placement I have been lucky to have visited some of the Trust’s reserves and find out what goes in to managing them as special sites for nature.

Managers of Marine Protected Areas across the UK came together to discuss the challenges they face and to share good practice.

Having learned about the importance of green corridors for the movement of wildlife, I visited a site in Colsterworth to see some conservation in action.

I've been out with the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust's Wildlife Sites Officer, Jeremy Fraser, to survey and identify wildflowers and grasses in Lincolnshire.

I look at how the Wildlife Trust's are using our transport infrastructure to link nature reserves and create a 'green corridor' for wildlife.

I've been lucky enough to obtain an internship with the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust, and I'll be blogging about my 10 week placement here.
