On a beautiful day, the students from Brighton College certainly Made a Difference when they visited Widewater on 28th September 2022 to work together with members of the WoW committee on various projects.

Several residents and visitors will have seen the students working hard clearing overgrown areas, painting the Information Booth with a fantastic makeover, painting the plinths housing the nature information boards and Litter Picking.

It was a delight to work with these lovely young people and we are very grateful for all their efforts to help the nature reserve to thrive.

Following the event, there were plenty of positive comments on our WoW Facebook page including: “They really did make a difference and Widewater and the booth is looking very smart”, “Such polite girls, who worked diligently all day”, “A lovely day, the girls’ teachers should be proud of them”, “I met these hardworking students on my little walk over to the beach with my granddaughter. Thank you we really appreciate your help”, “What a lovely bunch of giving students. Thank you”, “Oh they have done so well, thank you all . Well done !!”.
