RISBY - A WILDLIFE FRIENDLY VILLAGE

A network of wild areas, maintained and created by residents, on both public & private land to benefit wildlife & people.

ABOUT

Inspired by the Wildlife Trust's Wilder Future Campaign, Wildlife Friendly Village began in 2019 when a Risby resident wanted to do something to help restore the serious decline in our natural habitats. The Parish Council, the Village Hall, the local businesses and villagers were supportive of the project and now there are residents looking after many wild areas around the village.
