THE AIMS OF THE FRIENDS OF THE QUESLETT NATURE RESERVE INFORMATION


I have been asked on a number of occasions what the Friends of the Queslett Nature Reserve do?
I hope the brief introduction below may help with that enquiry?

FRIENDS OF THE QUESLETT NATURE RESERVE
CODE OF PRACTICE AND AIMS

Our main aim is to improve the Queslett Nature Reserve for the wild life and those who use the reserve.
Members should respect the wildlife and the environment in the Queslett Nature Reserve.
Members should be careful not to disturb the wild life in the QNR
Members are encouraged to do what they can to increase the membership of the F.Q.N.R.
Members should be considerate of other members and the general public.
Members should work with their committee and the Birmingham Council Leisure Services department to improve the QNR.
No pruning, construction work or any similar occurrence should take place without the permission of the relevant Birmingham City Council officer.
Any member seeing an unlawful act such as vandalism, should report the matter to the Parks department or the Police as necessary. We are the eyes and ears of the reserve and act as a Reserve watch.
Members have no additional authority where the QNR is concerned.
Any fund raising or publicity regarding the FQNR must be undertaken with the agreement of the Executive Committee and be cleared by the Chair
Members should also consider the surrounding area’s environmental needs (including the near by Aldridge Road Recreation Ground )
The FOQNR is a voluntary organisation.
Note
When working in the Queslett Nature Reserve the safety of you and those around you is of paramount concern please take care at all times.

When attending outdoor events at the Queslett Nature Reserve please come prepared for the weather
