Bug hotels are increasing in number of stations across North Yorkshire thanks to a workshop that started back in April.

Undergraduates originally started the project as part of their ‘Year in Industry' working for Northern. The project is now run by the Bentham Community Rail Partnership.

The scheme has been designed to educate biodiversity to school children so that they are made aware about the importance of looking after local habitats and how to help them thrive.

Gargrave Primary School in North Yorkshire is the latest school to participate in the workshop, which also includes the building of bug hotels.
