Junior Leaders from Macclesfield RSPB Wildlife Explorers presented David and Ann Taylor with an
RSPB Gold Wildlife Action Award in recognition of the amazing amount they do for wildlife
and conservation at their home, Pikelow Farm in Marton.
The
RSPB's Wildlife Action Awards celebrate practical conservation work to help wildlife,
a committment to the environment and being environmentally friendly as well as communicating
conservation messages to others. Pikelow Farm achieved highly in all categories.
As well as being a regular venue for Wildlife Explorer events and a great location for
wildlife photographers, the hard work put in by the Taylors means that Pikelow Farm has
proved a haven for declining species like
Tree Sparrows. Pikelow Farm is also the venue for the
RSPB Macclesfield Local Group's major fundraising event
WOW (Wildlife & Outdoor World).
