Volunteers are being sought to help create a pond in Beacon Park.
The new pond will be developed by members of Lichfield District Council’s Countryside and Parks Conservation Group (CPCG).
The voluntary group was set up to conserve and maintain local parks and green spaces.
Their next event will see the pond created near the new lake-side café on April 6, from 10.30am to 3pm.
Beth Osman, Heritage Parks Manager, said:
“We’re looking for volunteers to join the group and help create a space for frogs, dragonflies and aquatic plants to live. This event is a great way to boost the park’s wildlife and also learn essential skills to improve your own garden. Don’t forget to wear sturdy shoes, bring some thick gardening gloves, and to wrap up warm.”
No skills are needed and the volunteers, who must be over the age of 18, will be given full training after they meet at Beacon Park’s golf hut at 10.30am.
