Removal of Lethal Netting
The netting on top of Walthamstow Library, put there to deter birds, was sadly trapping
and killing many of them. After campaigning by members of Waltham Forest Animal Protection
and Waltham Forest and Redbridge Green Party, we are pleased to report that the netting was
removed in November 2014.
If you see a bird trapped in netting, or find a sick, injured or orphaned bird, then please call
London Widlife Protection. Click here for contact details.
