Four Swift boxes have been discreetly installed behind louvres on the tower of St Peter's church in Petersfield.

The initiative is designed to attract the birds during their brief nesting season each year.

Shine Radio's Stephen Martin spoke to Sarah, Lynette and Tim who have worked to ensure the boxes will be available for use for years to come.

Hear what they've done and why it matters for the Swifts.
