Moor Copse Nature Reserve | Pangbourne
If you're worried about loosing our green spaces then you'll be pleased to hear that Moor Copse Nature Reserve in Pangbourne, a haven for local wildlife, has doubled it's size after benefiting from a public appeal in 2006 to purchase an extension.
Fences, gates and tracks are being laid
The new land is gradually being restored and now the Wildlife Trust is looking for volunteers to help plant 2,000 trees, which will screen the site from the road and will join up an existing hedgerow and woodland, allowing wildlife to move freely around the habitat.
The event on Sunday, is also part of the joint Wildlife Trusts' and BBC Breathing Places campaign, giving you a chance to transform your own patch for the benefit of both wildlife and people.
So if you've ever fancied planting your own tree and helping to provide cover for creatures from tawny owls to wood mice then getting involved couldn't be easier.

How to get to the Reserve
Access to the reserve carpark is just south of Tidmarsh on the A340, before you cross the M4.
The reserve is open all year round, and is renowned for woodland flowers, birds, butterflies and moths.
There are lots of footpaths and rides that connect all the areas of the reserve. Dogs are allowed but must be kept on short leads.
