Day 2 of our 50 nature reserves in 50 days! Ashlawn Cutting is a disused railway that goes right into town. It's fantastic for people and wildlife, and managed in partnership with Rugby Borough Council. Rare plants, butterflies and amphibians all call this place home.

Great news! We're working in partnership with Rugby Borough Council (RBC) to help make your local green spaces great places for people and wildlife. And this year RBC is reducing grass cutting on 13 more sites to create urban meadows and boost wildlife

Our reserves team were out at Ryton woods this week finishing off some coppicing work before bird nesting starts. It looks like the sunshine and warmer weather have gone to their heads - if you can't work it out they're spelling out 'WKWT'!!
