On the outskirts of Derby, the UK's largest urban rewilding project is taking a former municipal golf course and returning it to nature. Tee off with Josh Davis to find out what changes have taken place and how local community involvement has been important in shaping this project so far. We’ve been visiting a range of projects across Derbyshire to see how nature restoration and rewilding can work in practice and within communities. The Derbyshire Wildlife Trust is working with a range of partners across the county to champion and improve the regions biodiversity. Working from the peaks to the streets, the charity is working to restore fragmented and degraded habitats, help those wanting to make a difference and connect people with the nature on their doorstep.
