Team INNS
Here you will find information on the collective effort at the North Wales Wildlife Trust to tackle the threat posed by invasive non-native species (invasive species or INNS). This includes several projects focusing on different approaches and different parts of North Wales and beyond.
Preventing Aliens Taking Hold (PATH)
The North Wales Wildlife Trust is continuing its on-going management of invasive non-native plant species within the Upper and Middle Dee catchment. This time we’re addressing the impact of the footpath network as a pathway of spread. By focusing on improving people’s experience of natural heritage through signs, audio guided walks, talks and INNS management; we aim to increase awareness of the heritage found within the SAC, have a positive impact on how people value it, and empower them to protect and enhance it.
Our impact
Each year, North Wales Wildlife Trust summarise our work in an ‘impact report’: a celebratory snap-shot of our local movement. We hope it will inspire you to help us work for the wilder future that our children, and our wildlife, deserve to inherit.
