Wild Kidlington Project

The ‘Wild Kidlington’ project began in 2022 and is one of several ‘Wilding’ projects now found across the County with Wild Banbury and Wild Bicester as close neighbours. The conservation charity, Wild Oxfordshire are excited to host this partnership project, (initially funded for three years with thanks to Cherwell District Council), to enable Kidlington to “bring the wild back” to the village. The project is currently transitioning into a new form / format, and is now funded 1 day a week by the Parish Council. Please be in touch if you’d like to find out more.

Purpose:

To enhance the nature themed groups and activities that are already going on in Kidlington

Wild Kidlington’s Project Officer, Rhiannon Evetts (Wild Oxfordshire) is working closely with KEG, St Mary’s Fields, Cherwell collective as well as other local groups and the Parish Council to ensure the project’s delivery and success.
