    Issue 1 Spring / Summer 2015 Surrey Dormouse Group Newsletter Welcome to the first issue of the Surrey Dormouse Group Newsletter! Thank you for supporting SDG as we venture into our first season of independence. We now have 78 members and are continuing to grow. Your help and financial support will ensure we continue to monitor dormice across Surrey, and provide safe and secure places for them to nest. The 2015 season is now well under way. It got off to a good start in March, with several dormice being found, including the big fellow in the top photo – 25g is a pretty impressive weight after 25g dormouse found in March (photo courtesy of Martin D’Arcy) months of hibernation! Many of the dormice found so far this year have been torpid, which makes for nice photo opportunities, but may be a reflection of shortage of food and / or cold weather. The other interesting trend this year seems to be the unusually high number of dormice found in empty boxes – making nests is so last season. The small number we saw last year has probably already been exceeded. In this issue: Torpid dormouse (photo courtesy of Kathryn Killner) • How was 2014 for Surrey dormice?

BOAs are those areas where targeted maintenance, restoration and creation of Natural Environment & Rural Communities (NERC) Act ‘Habitats of Principal Importance’, ie. Priority habitats will have the greatest benefit towards achieving this aim. Realising BOA aims will contribute to UK commitments to halt biodiversity declines, and their recognition directly meets current National Planning Policy Framework policy to plan strategically for the enhancement of the natural environment; to be achieved by providing net gains for biodiversity and establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures (para. 170). Designation of BOAs also fulfils NPPF requirements to identify, map and safeguard components of wider ecological networks, and areas identified for habitat management, enhancement, restoration or creation (para.
