RSPB dragonfly trail

RSPB dragonfly trail
Overview:

RSPB sought a permanent but flexible seasonal interpretation trail adaptable to specific species each month.

We created twelve interchangeable panels to fit across six permanent signs, sited beside the new dragonfly ponds at RSPB Saltholme.

The designs display beautiful photographs of different species of dragonflies and damselflies alongside fun facts. From hunting habits to the dragonfly's astonishing lifecycle, there's plenty to entertain audiences.

Within 12 weeks from first appointment to final funding submission, Beth, and the wider team, delivered an inspirational Interpretation Action Plan for Our Picturesque Landscape. It supported our successful Heritage Lottery Fund bid. We are thankful for their support with everything.

I have worked with Beth on several projects including Toad Hall and Flamingo Lagoon. It was a real joy working with her every time. She has a very good eye for detail and is great at listening to the needs of a client. Beth is great at what she does, I have learnt a lot from her along the way.

Beth project managed our vision for a pond dipping station at RSPB Loch Lomond, one of Scotland’s most highly designated sites. She created concept visualisations, for translation into technical drawings, bringing the project through planning & delivery. Feedback we’ve received from visitors, RSPB staff and volunteers has been excellent.

We would like to thank Beth for 20 years’ service, delivering high-quality visitor experiences across WWT’s international consultancy and UK visitor centres. Career highlights include doubling peak visitation at Castle Espie in Northern Ireland and an M+H Award shortlisting for an exhibit at Martin Mere in Lancashire.
