Friends of Badock’s Wood

Badock’s Wood Nature Reserve is right in the heart of the city at the heart of the local community. The wood is a haven of biodiversity along the banks of the River Trym and is managed jointly by Bristol Parks Department and The Friends of Badock’s Wood. The Friends have regular activities both working to maintain the wood, such as litter picking, as well as events to discover the wildlife.

Biodiversity is a source of wonder for young and old alike, but it also has very practical benefits for humanity. See page 3 of the September 2011 newsletter for a discussion of an attempt to value the benefits we get for free from nature, sometimes known as “ecosystem services”.
