Very good to see further investment into the inspiring efforts of National Trust at Wicken Fen in Cambridgeshire, including via a £1.3 million grant from Natural England. Nature recovery at scale, with impressive results already achieved, & more to come. itv.com/news/anglia/20…

Happy 125th anniversary Wicken Fen!

This famous nature reserve was just a two-acre fragment of land when the Trust bought it for £10 in 1899. It is now 2,000 acres with over 9,000 species recorded – a wonderful example of what can happen when we give nature space to breathe.
