Froglife’s Peterborough Neighbourhood Wildlife Corridors Project helps vulnerable and disadvantaged young people to take part in positive activities linked to wildlife and conservation.
What’s on offer?
We run long-term projects with sessions over 5 – 10 weeks. We develop the sessions to best suit the needs of the group and available space.
We deliver sessions to a diverse set of young people. We work with schools, youth groups and clubs.
Sessions consist of practical outdoor activities in green spaces. Young people will gain confidence, social skills and knowledge of the environment and conservation.
Activities during these sessions might include:
- Pond or mini pond creation
- Constructing wildlife homes such as hibernacula (amphibian refuges)
- Bug hotel construction
- Species identification
- Wildlife-inspired craft activities
