Why do leaves change colour in autumn?
The autumnal colours of deciduous trees are one of the big natural spectacles of the year. But why do leaves change colour in autumn, and why do some leaves go red, while others turn yellow?

Preventing Aliens Taking Hold (PATH)
The North Wales Wildlife Trust is continuing its on-going management of invasive non-native plant species within the Upper and Middle Dee catchment. This time we’re addressing the impact of the footpath network as a pathway of spread. By focusing on improving people’s experience of natural heritage through signs, audio guided walks, talks and INNS management; we aim to increase awareness of the heritage found within the SAC, have a positive impact on how people value it, and empower them to protect and enhance it.
Our impact
Each year, North Wales Wildlife Trust summarise our work in an ‘impact report’: a celebratory snap-shot of our local movement. We hope it will inspire you to help us work for the wilder future that our children, and our wildlife, deserve to inherit.
