An appeal to help transform a Hampshire field into a wildlife-friendly home has reached a major fundraising target.
Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust has raised more than £230,000 days before the deadline to buy Hockley Meadows Farm in Twyford.
It comes after the trust appealed for donations earlier this month and they are now on track to complete the purchase next week.
Once on site, there are plans to use the land to recreate the traditional wildlife-friendly farming methods that have shaped the Itchen Valley’s water meadows.
There will also be a working wildlife-friendly farm and floodplain management.
Quote MessageThe incredible outpouring of support for protecting our beautiful landscapes and wildlife habitats is so inspiring and we can’t wait to get on site and get to work.”
Debbie Tann, Chief Executive at Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust
