Watch our new film “Be Nature Aware”

We are pleased to launch the first of a series of short films aimed at showing how visitors to our coast can responsibly enjoy outdoor recreation while avoiding impacts on the internationally important wildlife found here.

This first film is based on the ‘Be Nature Aware’ section of the Wild Recreation Guide which we published last year. It looks at wildlife disturbance and the signs to watch out for which will tell you that birds or seals are reacting to your presence. The film was made for us by Wild Intrigue and features interviews with Space for Shorebirds and St. Mary’s Island Wildlife Conservation Society.

More information about how to safely and responsibly enjoy outdoor recreation while avoiding impacts to coastal wildlife see our Wild Recreation Guide for the Berwickshire, Northumberland and North Tyneside
