General Manager at Sandals Grande Antigua Resort & Spa Matthew Cornall took his first official tour of the newly refurbished administrative building at Wallings Nature Reserve. He was led by the reserve\u2019s Executive Director Refica Attwood.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The structural upgrades were made possible by a US$27,000 donation from the Sandals Foundation earlier this year. Work on the building began in February, including the construction of a deck, a shed, electrical work, painting, tiling and guttering.<\/p>\n

The improved facility also boasts a wheelchair-accessible bathroom, four water tanks, security cameras and a solar panel system. Additionally, informational signs will be placed along the hiking trails, which will highlight the biodiversity of the area.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>\n

The project is in keeping with the three core areas of focus for the Sandals Foundation \u2013 community, education and the environment.<\/p>

It promotes the conservation of the country\u2019s biodiversity; it was born in the community; it also educates residents and visitors alike about the species of plants and animals in the environment.<\/p>\n
