If you are passionate about our local wildlife, there are lots of groups that you can get connected to and places to find information. We are building this list constantly, so do send us your suggestions to wildaboutlaverstock@gmail.com.
Devenish Bradshaw Community Trust - looks after the Watermeadows in the village, lots of opportunities to get involved in practical conservation and education work.. https://www.dbct.org/
Castle Hill Country Park- Just a few steps outside the village is Castle Hill Country Park which is owned by the Parish Council and managed by the Land Trust working with Wiltshire Wildlife Trust. A team of volunteers meet at least once a month to improve the park and make it a better habitat for species such as the skylark. https://thelandtrust.org.uk/space/castle-hill-country-park/
