This week Dorchester Living have been installed Insect Hotels around Heyford Park as part of its ongoing commitment to sustainability and enhancing local biodiversity. Although a small addition to the green areas at Heyford Park the Insect Hotels will play a vital role in supporting the area’s natural ecosystems.

​

Insects play a key role in the landscape of Heyford Park, actively contributing to the health of local gardens, green spaces, and wildlife corridors. These sanctuaries support pollination, crucial to a thriving ecosystem.

​

Positioned thoughtfully around the development, in wildflower areas and landscaped green zones, the insect hotels serve as a practical conservation tool and an educational resource. They encourage residents of all ages to learn more about the important role insects play in our environment and how we can help protect them.

​

This initiative aligns with Dorchester Living’s broader vision to build not just homes, but vibrant, environmentally conscious communities. By making space for nature, Heyford Park is a place where people and wildlife can co-exist harmoniously.

​

Projects like the insect hotel installations complement other community-driven environmental efforts at Heyford Park, such as the recent installation of over 50 swift boxes.
