Wildlife
Investors
Seaview Wildlife Encounter has become a
Wildlife Investor (business supporter) of the
Wildlife Trust. Seaview Wildlife is situated
on the north-east corner of the Isle of
Wight in a beautiful parkland setting, with
waterfalls, lakes and dramatic views across
the Solent. Since opening in 1971 a steady
process of investment and development has
resulted in the creation of a diverse wildlife
haven with an amazing array of exotic birds
and animals.
As a successful company established for
39 years and having very strong roots on
the Island, the business decided to become
a Wildlife Investor to put something back
into the community and to help preserve
the unique wildlife habitats of the Isle of
Wight and Hampshire. The Park is very
keen to become involved with projects and
fund raising initiatives to educate visitors in
appreciating and respecting our beautiful
countryside.

Investor scheme, please see http://www.hwt.

2010 Wildlife Survey –
why not take part!
2010 is the International Year of Biodiversity and to celebrate
the occasion, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust has
launched a simple wildlife survey that everyone can take part
in over the summer months.
Our wildlife is under threat from habitat loss and needs our
help so we are asking Hampshire residents if they have seen
any of the following species this year; frog, house sparrow,
hedgehog, slow worm, red admiral butterfly and stag beetle.
To find out more about the survey and submit your records,
please visit our website http://www.hwt.org.uk/pages/2010wildlife-survey-1.html or to request a survey form email
[email protected] or call 01489 774400.
