WORCESTERSHIRE Wildlife Trust has launched ‘My Wild Life’ to encourage people to stop and reflect on what wildlife means and how it affects their daily life.
The trust is encouraging people to share their own story or wildlife and wild places that matter to them and why, using #MyWildLife on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
Wendy Carter, communications manager for the trust, said: “Many studies show that people lucky enough to live near and experience green spaces are mentally and physically healthier.
“The trust is working hard to restore and protect wildlife and wild places across our beautiful county. Through ‘My Wild Life’ we’re encouraging people from all walks of life to share their personal stories about what nature means to them.
“From well-known people like Sir David Attenborough to people who live near you, hundreds of people are taking part in ‘My Wild Life’ and we’d like to hear from many more.”
Julie Allen, from Bromsgrove, said: “Whether it’s watching the birds on your bird feeder or going to somewhere like the trust’s Upton Warren nature reserve, there’s always something going on.
“It’s the wildlife equivalent of your favourite soap opera.”
