Wildlife Ponds Manchester

It’s important for British wildlife that gardeners do their bit for aquatic life & freshwater plants.

“It’s really important for British wildlife that gardeners do their bit for aquatic life, freshwater plants, insects, amphibians and mammals all rely on our commitment.”

Sadly, countryside ponds are threatened by pollution, the changing climate, drainage, and development. However, we estimate that the nation’s gardeners have created a staggering additional 2-3 million garden ponds. As well as providing much pleasure and enjoyment, these small waterbodies increase the habitat available for our freshwater wildlife and may link fragmented wildlife communities.
