Please be aware as from the 4th June bbqs and any form of open fires will not be allowed at Foremark Reservoir. This decision has been taken due to impact that bbqs are having on the environment.
Another superb day of work by the volunteers, after a morning litter pick we set-to removing the BBQ stands from Foremark in preparation for the No BBQ Policy which comes into effect on Monday 4th June.
Phew! It's a scorcher! If you're visiting our reservoirs today please don't be tempted to take a dip. The water may look inviting but there are dangerous currents and unseen hazards below the surface. Stay safe and stay out of the water.
The weather is perfect for a bbq today, but please remember if you are visiting Foremark to make sure you BBQ in the correct areas and take your rubbish home with you.
It's great to see that people have been using the bbq pits installed by the rangers! However, do not leave your bags of rubbish here! This is what happens at night when the badgers and foxes get in! If it won't fit in the bin, please take it home with you. #foremark#swadlincote
It's great to see that the nice weather has brought more visitors to Foremark! However, please do not leave bags of rubbish overnight- the animals rip them to pieces, resulting in this mess! Also, there's no need to bring bbqs- there are plenty of bbq pits provided!

Did you know Foremark's beautiful woodland hides the Wildlife Trust's Calvers Rocks nature reserve? Chiff chaffs could be heard today amongst the multitude of birds singing during a wondrous woodland walk.
It's lovely at Foremark today, the sun is out and the cafe is open serving delicious delights! Get out and make the most of it while the weather lasts! Happy Easter folks!
Why don't you get fungi in confined spaces? Because there isn't mushroom!
Okay, maybe not. But get out to Staunton Harold and Foremark this weekend, because the water and woodland is beautiful, much better than my jokes.
