The IW Pond Warden Scheme is supported by the Footprint Trust, Environment Agency, Southern Water and BTCV.

There are currently 100 trained pond wardens on the Island.  Some of which are now looking for public ponds to adopt.

We are currently recruiting Pond Wardens. You can go on our waiting list and we will keep you informed of any developments.

To find out more about the Pond Warden scheme, you can contact Ray Harrington-Vail by emailing otprint-trust.co.uk

The Footprint Trust has a large tool store that is free to use for any insured community group, member of the IW Pond Wardens or IW Green Gym.  If you need some hand tools, give us a call!

You can read information on managing ponds for wildlife on the BTCV website: Waterways & Wetlands
