Pondscapes Project
Upcoming Project
About The Project
The wildlife ponds of Sussex are biodiversity hotspots, scattered across the county’s countryside, woodlands, commons, and urban edges. From ancient dewponds on the South Downs to newly restored wetland features in nature reserves, these small waterbodies support a rich mosaic of species and play a crucial role in local ecosystems.
The Weald to Waves team is now developing a pond creation and enhancement project to build a connected network of wetland stepping stones across the corridor. These ponds will help species move through the landscape, boost biodiversity, and improve water resilience.
More details coming soon, watch this space!
Collaborative Effort
The success of this project has been thanks to our amazing partners, who have contributed their expertise and resources to the scheme. Without them, nature recovery on a landscape scale would not be possible.
