There is no doubt, larger sites are better for wildlife and few of our nature reserves have grown more than Arger Fen & Spouse's Vale.

Now we have the chance to buy Pecks Piece, 40 acres of arable land which links the reserve to the adjoining ancient woodland.

Legacy gifts have put the land purchase within our reach and we now need to raise the final £35,000 - please can you help?

Appeal update; Your support is very much appreciated and we are delighted to have reached and exceeded our £35,000 target – thank you.  All donations will now be directed to the management of the nature reserve.

Over the last few days, you may have heard mention of Arger Fen & Spouse’s Vale nature reserve as one of the sites with ash dieback disease.

The picture for Suffolk is likely to become clearer over the coming weeks.  Amidst so much uncertainty, our ambition to create a space for nature at Pecks Piece, is all the more timely.
