You may remember that last year we won some money in Tesco’s Bags of Help scheme. Well, that money has been put to good use down by the Twinney’s Car Park where we now have a new picnic area as well as improved habitats along that stretch of the river. We’ve planted wild flowers in their hundreds and endangered species of trees as well as controlling the Japanese Knotweed on the whole park.

Immense thanks must go to Emma Houghton and John Booth for making the application and then managing the implementation of the plan. The outcome is there for all of us to enjoy and we are all the beneficiaries.
