Friends of the Lake District are offering a new opportunity for communities to take part and receive dedicated help for their green space.
They are inviting communities to participate in a 3 year funded project focusing on local heritage green space. This is a follow on to the highly successful Our Green Space project.
What would your community like to do?
. Repair historic features such as a maypole, well or stone wall boundaries
. You have a project in mind but you don’t have the funding to do it
. Develop and implement a management plan for the green spaces
. Better understand what you can or cannot do
. Create a wildlife area or pond
. Involve the local school in activities on the green space
. Re-create community celebrations and festivals
. Involve community volunteers
. Research the history of your local green space, community and cultural heritage
. Receive training and support to allow plans to come to fruition
