A charity that saves tropical forests has turned its attention to helping Painswick frogs.

The World Land Trust, whose patron is famous naturalist Sir David Attenborough, works to save threatened species around the globe.

Its one UK reserve is at Kites Hill, off the A46 towards Prinknash Abbey.

It has created a large wildlife pond on 40 acres of former farmland, ancient beech woodland and newly-restored woods to help tackle the extinction crisis facing UK amphibians and reptiles.

WLT hopes to encourage and protect frogs, toads, newts, snakes and lizards.
