Wildlife on the Roseland

Roseland provides an abundance of diverse habitats. It is bound on the west side by the Carrick Roads (or Fal Ria), an area which meets the sea between Falmouth and St Mawes, Cornwall and extends upstream past Ruan to Malpas and Truro. The river complex areas are part of a ria system, an estuary formed of a drowned unglaciated river valley typified by steep sides and slow tidal currents, with subtidal rocky shores and exposed intertidal mud on creeks and river branches. The steep river sides support important sessile oak woodland.

Wild Roseland wishes to:

· Increase awareness of Wild Roseland and its work in Gerrans, Philleigh, Ruan Lanihorne, St Just in Roseland, Veryan and Tregony.

· Grow our volunteer base and engagement (e.g., wildlife recording, surveys, walks).

· Foster community involvement: landowners ("Homes for Wildlife"), local residents, visitors.

· Share results and impact of your projects (hedgerows, marine, wildflowers) to build credibility.

· Promote events, nature walks and encourage sign-ups.
