A C T I ON<br />

Charles Waterton was not afraid to ruffle a few feathers. His<br />

nature reserve was very close to a soap factory. Charles<br />

was worried that the chemicals produced would poison the<br />

water around the reserve. The factory owner promised not<br />

to let any chemicals escape into the rivers, but when they<br />

broke that promise, Charles was ready to take action.<br />

He took the soap factory to court for polluting the nature<br />

reserve and eventually, the whole factory moved to a<br />

different location. He also campaigned for the protection <strong>of</strong><br />

Heath Common using posters and letters to the press.<br />

Heath Common remains a conservation area to this day.<br />

Ruffle Some Feathers. We are<br />

stronger together. Can you<br />

organise a campaign, a celebration<br />

or a task force? Perhaps you could<br />

arrange a litter pick or a community picnic. You<br />

could create a poster or petition to raise awareness.<br />

Don’t forget to save images, souvenirs, press cuttings<br />

and banners for your exhibition.<br />
