Fire at Little Woolden Moss will decimate wildlife

A FIRE which was started at a sensitive and important nature reserve has had a devastating impact on wildlife preparing their homes for Spring. Firefighters attended the scene at Little Woolden Moss, near Salford, on Monday evening (April 12), where an area of approximately 500m2 was ablaze, a suspected victim of arson. The affected area was a region of extremely rare lowland heath habitat, of which the UK has lost approximately 84 per cent of since 1800. Along with the obvious destruction of plant life in the area, which includes heathers and cross-leaved heath which are vital nectar sources for pollinators, this habitat also provides a home for a number of species including common lizards, field voles and field mice, many of which may not have been able to escape the flames quickly enough.

New campaign to restore abandoned Blackburn greenhouses

A NEW campaign to renovate long redundant greenhouses at Blackburn’s Witton Park has been launched. The Greenhouse Project would see structures renovated as a ‘growing, learning, wellbeing and community hub’. The aim is then for volunteers to produce seasonal food to take home and cook so that they are eating healthily. It is also hoped that the project will enable people to have the skills needed to start growing food from their own homes. Project leaders said local organisations could also work with people at risk of food poverty to ‘encourage wider growing’. Andy Mather is Myplace Project Officer with the Wildlife Trust for Lancashire, Manchester and North Merseyside. He said: “These are a huge complex of five interconnecting 30 metre greenhouses that were abandoned over 10 years ago. They were used by the council to grow plants for the borough but then got out-sourced.
