The Buckthorne Cutting Nature Reserve is at the centre of a 4.5 kilometre SINC and is adjacent to Gorne Wood (Ancient Woodland). It already has stag beetles, owls, slow worms and bats. This project will support the restoration of the orchard and the creation of hedgerow helping to sustain wildlife that travel along this corridor; while also attracting more wildlife. Both projects will also improve health and wellbeing as the nature reserve has daily visits by school children and is open to the public through volunteering sessions, open days and specifically for vulnerable groups (such as female refugees and adults with learning disabilities). Both groups are more likely to have less connection to nature due to financial disadvantages. The project is led by the Fourth Reserve Foundation.
