Waternish Wildlife Environmental Group
Proposed ENVIRONMENTAL / WILDLIFE GROUP
First public meeting
A meeting will be held on Thursday 14th Nov at 7.30pm in Waternish Hall to discuss the opportunities that exist around creating an umbrella environmental and/or wildlife group for Lochbay, or Waternish, which we all know is a very special place with a very special story!
Much work is already ongoing in Waternish, and has been for many years, undertaking monitoring and community science projects, and beach cleaning, just to mention some of it.
Many of us value what we have here, and it seems that an opportunity may exist to bring all of that work together in some way to tell a more well-rounded meaningful story. Perhaps to expand the scope of community science projects being carried out, to involve others who may wish to be involved, perhaps to seek collective funding, maybe to plan rewilding projects, who knows where it might go. We have thoughts and ideas, maybe others have too.
It seems a good start would be to meet and to see if interest exists in working together. To find out what else might happen, and if other people have plans and ambitions.
So PLEASE come along and have a chat. Share the story, bring your friends and neighbours.
