Overview

Volunteer with West Cumbria Rivers Trust. As the Spring showers begin toads/frogs make their way back to their ponds to mate. Unfortunately, often these journeys require amphibians to cross the road at night, which can be pretty dangerous. Join us on a wet spring evening to collect toads on the roads at their crossing points and take them to their pond, just outside Keswick.
