Norman is a local man who gives his time voluntarily to maintain the moat. He built this island to encourage the birds to nest there. Norman's work was recognised by Birmingham City Council in 2005 when he was given a Good Citizen Award. Congratulations Norman, and thank you for all your work!

Norman has been busy again. |
This swan is very grateful to Norman for the island
