ARRANGEMENTS FOR OUT OF HOURS VISITING TO SALTHOLME POOLS HIDE RSPB SALTHOLME

A system has been set up to enable club members to access the Saltholme Pools hide at Saltholme Reserve out of hours, for a trial period over this winter.

On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays only, the Saltholme Pools hide can be utilised before the reserve itself officially opens at 10am. The actual opening dates and times will be dependant upon the volunteer hide wardens. Details will be posted on the TBC website by the reserve wardens.

The main reserve gate will be unlocked on these mornings, but will remain closed. After entering through the gate, please shut it behind you. Cars are to be parked in the bottom bay section of the main car park.

Pedestrian access to Saltholme Pools hide will be solely via the gate and track to the east of the play area and then onwards towards the Saltholme Pool hide only. The hide wardens will keep records of all visitors in a hide log. ( NOTE : Members wishing to volunteer as either hide wardens or key holders should contact Emma Birnie (Reserve Warden) on 01642 546625).

This is the first stage of a trial that will hopefully lead to further access during the evenings throughout the spring and summer.

Saltholme is a great asset to us all and we appreciate that the RSPB have invested significantly in it. We all know of the potential trouble from local villains. The security of the site is of paramount concern and key to the continuation of this initiative.

On behalf of the club I would like to thank the management of the reserve in setting up this facility and I am sure that club members will be as anxious as I that the operation is both smooth and to the satisfaction of all parties.

Hi All
I have recently attended the volunteer training at the reserve to enable me to be one of the key holders. I will let you know when I have been issued with a key and will post the dates when I will be openning the reserve/Saltholm hide early.
