Whether flying from the south to breed in the spring, or from the north in the winter in search of food and milder climes, or simply passing through on their journey, bird migration is one of the UK’s most impressive natural events.

The UK has lost up to 90% of its seagrass meadows in the past century, which has had negative consequences for the health and resilience of our coastal systems. In 2019, Swansea University, the charity Project Seagrass and WWF-UK formed a collaboration to begin to restore some of what we have lost. Concurrently, over the last six years Swansea University has been leading trials across Wales to develop appropriate methods for seagrass restoration. Here in North Wales, we've now teamed up with the partnership to start exploring how we can bring this exciting project to North Wales. Funding secured from the National Lottery Heritage Fund allows us to deliver a socially agreeable and ecologically sound programme of restoration and we want you to get involved.

Volunteers from North Wales Wildlife Trust, in partnership with housing association Cartrefi Conwy, launched the Maelgwn Nectar Bar Project in Llandudno Junction to transform this unloved strip of ground into a haven for wildlife and people.

Whether it is a blaze of yellow from meadow buttercups or the spikes of green-winged and early purple orchids – North Wales's wild meadows hum with life from the first spring bloom to the purple of the last of the black knapweed.
