SLOW-WORMS FOUND AT THE OLD GUIDE HUT
Apparently slow-worms have been found on the site of the old guide hut on Victoria Avenue. Construction work has started recently. It's winter and the slow-worms are in hibernation. Shouldn't work be halted? Who is dealing with the mitigation and/or the translocation of these protected reptiles?

Try PDC Planning ..
Swanage is crawling with slow worms, ask any kid.
Is this story for real lol
Our money (taxes) pay people to create policies and laws to protect eg. endagered species, habitats and areas of outstanding natural beauty. If there is no point to this story, then there is no point in paying a fortune to the civil servants that create the policies. These policies are important, but the most frustrating thing of all is that they are rarely upheld, so whilst there is a need to protect the above, it seems as long as there is mitigation involved then any habitat can be destroyed! So what is the point of any protective policies at all. Trees, slow worms, bats, great crested newts, woodland etc etc etc.
Save the slow worms !!
