Blackpool’s only SSSI-designated nature reserve, Marton Mere is a haven for wildlife, from rare birds to dragonflies and wildflowers. Though owned by Blackpool Council, the reserve is managed entirely by volunteers via the group The Friends of Marton Mere, who are dedicated to preserving and enhancing its diverse habitats.

Here, we share seasonal wildlife highlights, conservation efforts, guided walks, and behind-the-scenes insights into the work that keeps this special place thriving.

Subscribe to explore the magic of Marton Mere with us and discover the wildlife on your doorstep! 🦆🌾🌎
