The memories of Storm Arwen are still strong around Morecambe Bay.
The first bad storm of the winter brought down powerlines cutting off homes and leaving communities without power for days. The disruption caused by the storm, which unusually blew in from the north, affected many all around the Bay.
You don’t have to travel far to see evidence of the destruction caused. Trees that had stood proud for decades were felled in one night and landscapes changed forever.
For this edition of the podcast we return to Eaves Wood near Silverdale. While the storm did damage the area, work to nurture nature here continues. The area is home to a wide variety of species and more are being reintroduced as part of the Back on our Map (BOOM) project as we’ve heard in an earlier edition of the podcast.
National Trust area ranger Craig McCoy explained more about the work that’s underway and how he and a small team of colleagues and volunteers are giving nature a helping hand.
