Conservation in Practice at the Great Fen Project, Cambridgeshire

Foundation Degree in Countryside and Wildlife Management students were treated to a day long visit to the Great Fen Project, Cambridgeshire. Taking in walks of Wicken Fen, Holme Fen and Wood Walton Fen students were able to see first hand how these extensive wetland habitats are managed for the conservation of species and what the ecological restoration progress has been. The highlight of the trip was probably the extensive birch woodland at Holme Fen - a very surreal place indeed.
