| Mother and Toddler classes, Quilting, and |
|||||||
| Wildlife classes. It has also become a meeting |
|||||||
| place for local and national organisations. |
|||||||
| Monthly Farmer's Markets and Craft Markets |
|||||||
| have been established. The Centre has also |
|||||||
| hasted birthday parties and weddings. |
|||||||
| Planning Permission has been granted for a |
|||||||
| Cafra in the Centre building, and in the interim |
|||||||
| until the conversion work is carried out, there is |
|||||||
| a popular temporary coffee stall located in the |
|||||||
| Car Park. | |||||||
| In order to pay for the improvements to the |
|||||||
| Centre and other facilities on the Reserve, the |
|||||||
| Trust has found it necessary to introduce Parking |
|||||||
| charges in the Car park, which was formerly free. |
|||||||
| The parking is managed by an external |
|||||||
| company, but the majority of the income |
|||||||
| generated goes direct to the Trust. |
|||||||
| The Company now employs a full-time Warden, |
|||||||
| and a Centre Manager. | |||||||
| Two groups of volunteers meet weekly, one |

| As part of NRW's Management Agreement, a |
|||||||
| new fence has been constructed across part of |
|||||||
| the Reserve, in order to control grazing by cattle |
|||||||
| and sheep which is essential for the control of |
|||||||
| invasive scrub. Gates and stiles have been |
|||||||
| installed on every footpath or bridleway, |
|||||||
| ensuring continued public access to the dunes |
|||||||
| and beach. | |||||||
| As part ofthe Sands of Life Project, also funded | |||||||
| by NRW, some areas of sand dunes near the |
|||||||
| coast have been cleared of vegetation in order |
|||||||
| to encourage the transport of sand inland by the |
|||||||
| wind, and to stimulate the growth of 'pioneer' |
