The sun is shining and the reserve is looking fantastic – so come and visit us!
Take a look at our new projects, the current phases of which are now finished.
We’ve cut some of our reedbed using a Truxor – lovely open views across towards the river and ensuring that the reedbed doesn’t dry out and grows healthily again later this year.
And, we’ve done some new works on the Draper Scrape to ensure that we can better control water levels and predation to make it more suitable for wading birds.
These projects are part of a large scale partnership programme including a range of habitat and access improvements along the River Lea from Luton to London and is supported by Defra, DCLG and Natural England.
