Lavell’s Wetland Trust maintains habitats for wildlife at Lavell’s Lake, Dinton Pastures and Lea Farm Lake. We have one of the most popular and much loved nature reserves in the area, if not county. With 3 public hides and 1 for members at Lea Farm Lake we are able to bring our visitors closer to nature and inspire minds young and old.

We host extremely well attended monthly volunteer work parties, to manage the habitats and optimize them for a variety of aquatic and wetland species, from Egrets, Herons, Bitterns, Grebes to Wildfowl, Waders to Terns, Martins to Skylarks, Warblers to Buntings. There is also a wide variety of plants and the insects and other animals that depend on them.

We receive Duke of Edinburgh (DoE) youths as part of their volunteer work and have hosted school groups and provided guided walks for Brownies. We also have regular guided bird walks open to all.
