MWT campaign to protect wild areas

A campaign is being launched later this month looking at the decline of wild areas across the Island.

The initiative from Manx Wildlife Trust called 'Wilder Future' also aims to raise support for action to safeguard Manx natural environments.

It will cover five key themes of wildlife value, species loss, farming and fishing, making space for wildlife and sustainability.

It launches on March 30 at 10am at the Courthouse in Ramsey and runs until April 6 - activities will be available for children and staff and volunteers from the trust will be on hand to answer any questions.
