We are your wetlands centre!
We are your wetlands centre!We have been around for a long time, since 1993, doing wetlands work – conserving, restoring and educating. We’re that friendly place where everyone comes to recharge and dip their toes in the fascinating world of wetlands.
We are an independent, not-for-profit, community-based organisation. The Centre runs with a handful of dedicated staff and an amazing team of volunteers.
