Wildlife in Gladstone Park

We continually explore the park to discover the extent and diversity of wildlife it contains. We are passionate about the tree species, shrubs, butterflies, birds and bats that thrive in the park. Please let us know if you see anything.

Keep up to date with Wildlife news update and events in the park by joining the newsletter. See past issues here.

There are opportunities to join volunteer groups who meet three times a week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 10.00 till 11.30/12.00 – the Gladstone Gardening Group and the Dollis Hill Copse Group.

Insects are a great asset to any gardens or parks. By providing a suitable habitat, beneficial insects are more likely to establish themselves. We help them, they help us. What a team!

Our park is also just as beautiful at night!
