Douglas Council is launching a community wildlife project to support biodiversity in the capital.
Community groups, schools, and neighbourhoods are encouraged to pitch their projects to the ‘Dragonflies Den’.
These include wildflower areas, wildlife ponds and community gardens and should have the aim of encouraging pollinators and fighting climate change.
Successful projects will work with the council and be given tools, expertise and materials to create their space.
Staff at the Manx Wildlife Trust will be on hand to support Douglas residents develop their ideas into a plan to be considered in the Dragonflies’ Den.
Schools, community groups, businesses and neighbourhoods are all welcome to apply and are invited to contact enquiries@mwt.im by 8 March.
