Victoria Park Wildlife Group

Victoria Park Wildlife Group is a group of local residents who help to improve Victoria Park, Bristol for people and wildlife.  We are an independent group approved by the City Council and funded by the Council and various businesses and trusts.  We have been operating since 1989 and are seen as a good example of how local people can become involved in managing a park.    We have regular meetings and work-days and welcome your involvement.

How you can help...

VPWG always welcomes extra help. We need practical help for the park projects and also background support in administration, design and fund-raising.

Current Projects

Tree Planting
Over 12 000 native trees and shrubs have been planted since 1989 in the form of hedgerows and copses.  The trees are all doing very well and have really begun to change the appearance of the park.
The Wetland

This ambitious project has occupied a lot of our time.  This area is a great attraction to children and pets, as well as wildlife.  Repeated planting of trees and shrubs has helped the area become a leafy oasis in the middle of the park.
Butterfly garden
A different kind of flower-bed near the Bowling Green is specially designed to attract and feed insects.
