  • Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation Wales Guidance (Pdf)
    Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Foreword The Welsh Assembly Government’s Environment Strategy for Wales, published in May 2006, pays tribute to the intrinsic value of biodiversity – ‘the variety of life on earth’. The Strategy acknowledges the role biodiversity plays, not only in many natural processes, but also in the direct and indirect economic, social, aesthetic, cultural and spiritual benefits that we derive from it. The Strategy also acknowledges that pressures brought about by our own actions and by other factors, such as climate change, have resulted in damage to the biodiversity of Wales and calls for a halt to this loss and for the implementation of measures to bring about a recovery. Local Wildlife Sites provide essential support between and around our internationally and nationally designated nature sites and thus aid our efforts to build a more resilient network for nature in Wales. The Wildlife Sites Guidance derives from the shared knowledge and experience of people and organisations throughout Wales and beyond and provides a common point of reference for the most effective selection of Local Wildlife Sites. I am grateful to the Wales Biodiversity Partnership for developing the Wildlife Sites Guidance. The contribution and co-operation of organisations and individuals across Wales are vital to achieving our biodiversity targets. I hope that you will find the Wildlife Sites Guidance a useful tool in the battle against biodiversity loss and that you will ensure that it is used to its full potential in order to derive maximum benefit for the vitally important and valuable nature in Wales.

  • Monmouthshire Meadows
    Monmouthshire Meadows Issue 16 Registered Charity No.1111345 Spring 2012 Our aims are to conserve and enhance the landscape by enabling members to maintain, manage and restore their semi-natural grasslands and associated features Trevor Evans receives an MBE The MMG Committee is delighted that our President, Trevor Evans, was mentioned in the New Year Honours list. He received a well-deserved M.B.E. for services to wildlife conservation. For 40 years Trevor has been Monmouthshire vice-county recorder (vice-county 35 is similar to the old county of Gwent with a few minor differences) for the Botanical Society of the British Isles and in his early 80’s he wrote the much acclaimed Flora of Monmouthshire. That book is a ‘must’ for anyone interested in plants in their local patch. His knowledge of the county and its plants is second to none, having lived most of his life in Chepstow where he taught for many years at the secondary school. Congratulations Trevor! Photo: Ann Robinson From the Chair The grant from Environment Wales for travel costs involved in survey work and for a bilingual report of our surveys on members’ land has kept us busy. During the late summer Glynis Laws, Maggie Biss, Sheelagh Kerry and I carried out surveys and entered all these as well as more historical data dating back as far as 2003 onto a database. Analysis of these data formed the basis for the Environment Wales report, a copy of which now on the website. Highlights of the surveys are coming across ‘new’ species-rich meadows and pastures.
