I’m going to put Nature Uganda in contact with them, might be useful.
Oh that Uganda was as well disciplined on environmental matters as the UK. We Brits bemoan the regulations but at last they have a positive impact – just look at how clean the UK’s rivers are now. (Tho some would argue that since we’ve relocated all our manufacturing to China, we’ve simply shifted the problem).
Tx again!

The WWT has six sites in the UK that are RAMSAR sites – at Caerlaverock, Martin Mere, Llanelli, Welney, Castle Espie, and at the trust’s headquarters at Slimbridge.

We are big supporters of WWT and of the late Peter Scott, the driving force behind its establishment of these sites.

Do check them out at http://www.wwt.org.uk/
