Visitors to Attenborough Nature Reserve will be able to 'walk on water' thanks to a new viewing platform. The platform will also be a spot for people to pond dip as part of the site's educational programs.
The platform has been made of recycled materials and it is hoped that it will give people a chance to boost their mental and physical wellbeing by being immersed in nature. The new Boardwalk dipping platform is thanks to a partnership between Capital One and the Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust as part of an investment in the nature reserve.
The trust has major plans for the reserve since they took over the ownership of the site and this is just one of many enhancements. Other plans include new habitat creations with further improvements to be made to the visitor centre. The boardwalk will help visitors get closer to the beautiful natural habitats around them.
