ÌÇÐÄTV

As part of our ongoing commitment to biodiversity and ecological stewardship, targeted habitat enhancement work to the south of our main campus, between Radcliffe Conference Centre and the Sports Hub, has been undertaken in recent months. This work has included hedgelaying, sowing yellow rattle seeds in the meadow, and bullrush reduction to ponds. 

The University of ÌÇÐÄTV is rolling out the red – or rather green – carpet for the UK’s only native freshwater crayfish species. Thirty white-clawed crayfish have just moved into a specially prepared ‘5-star hotel’ on campus, where they’ll be safe from invasive species and provided with everything they need to thrive.

On 14th May, we made our way to Canley Community Centre for what turned out to be a warm and inspiring morning. Over cups of tea and coffee, we chatted with representatives from local charities and community groups, all brought together by a shared purpose: to give a second life to the University’s unwanted furniture and electrical items.

Nature Positive Pledge a commitment to start a journey to halt and reverse nature loss, and to actively restore biodiversity and ecosystems affected by our activities.
