Attendees have had their pond questions answered at our Pond Doctor events whilst discovering lots more about amphibians, reptiles, aquatic invertebrates and how to create and manage ponds large and small! The project has run 44 Pond Doctors, engaging with 5,401 members of the public.
In 2023 our final Pond Doctors took place at Cashel Forest in April and the Dunblane Eco Fest in May – with many attending learning about pond creation methods they can use in the summer!
In 2022 we completed Pond Doctors at the The Pineapple, Stirling Science Festival at The Albert Halls, The Dandelion Festival at Bannockburn House, Airth Highland Games, Loch Lomond Comic Con, Gargunnock Show, Menstrie Duck Race and larger Pond Doctor events at Balmaha Visitor Centre, The Helix and Muiravonside Country Park. These larger Pond Doctor events also included wildlife-friendly based arts and crafts with participants creating wildlife homes for their own green spaces!
