A programme bringing wildlife closer to people living in the city has received National Lottery funding.
Wildlife and Wellbeing, based in Salisbury, has secured £5,000 in funding to offer events in green spaces close to the city centre in 2026 and 2027 to improve people’s wellbeing.
The events will include bat nights, fungi and birdsong events and a summer solstice celebration, in the hopes of highlighting Salisbury’s rich natural environment.
Polly Whyte, the project lead, said: “There are lovely green spaces in Salisbury and river walks as well where people can go out and connect with nature, which is really good for our wellbeing.”
