Great Northern is helping to enhance biodiversity on the railway by working with the Bee Friendly Trust to create 20 ‘homes for nature’ at six stations including in Cuffley and Hadley Wood.

The village stations now have two types of bird boxes, an iconic striped bug hotel for small animals and insects, and hibernacula – shelters filled with timber and wood to give small animals and insects a place to live in the winter months.

Since the 1970s UK species have declined around 19 per cent on average and nearly one in six species are now threatened with extinction.
