Our beautifully carved, wooden owl sculpture was the pride of the Callington Road Local Nature Reserve. It had been lovingly created by a local sculptor after the Friends Group won funding from Tesco Bags of Help. It was enjoyed by many local residents, families and dog walkers in the few short months it had been in place.

On 6th June 2019 the owl was vandalised. It was ripped from its concrete foundations and dumped in the wildlife pond within the nature reserve. It was damaged in the process, as was the fencing around the pond.

We are raising money to have the owl repaired and reinstated in its home, on even more secure foundations. We want to show that a strong and caring community will triumph over the mindless acts of a few individuals.
