Dragon Finder is an ambitious reptile and amphibian conservation
project that will run across the whole of London over a five
year period.
The main aims of the project are to work with
communities across the city to help discover where amphibians
and reptiles are currently found and to create new habitats for
these species in London. This will be vital in helping to
conserve them for the future.
We will be organising a wide programme of events to help raise
peoples’ awareness and understanding of the city's Dragons and
enable everybody to get involved in their conservation. Events
will include skills training workshops in surveying and
practical habitat management, fun days such as 'swimming with
Dragons' (family sessions in swimming pools), school Dragon Art
exhibitions, and a Dragon Finder Living Atlas, which will
include an interactive website and downloadable phone apps.
Thank you to everyone who filled in our allotment questionnaire
last year - your input has been extremely valuable! Allotments
will be contacted with further information if funding is
successful.
The final grant application was submitted
in March 2012 and we should hear if we have been successful in
June.
