    Success for our Grant Application!

    Picture
    We are delighted to announce that we have been successful in our application to The Gateway Group for a grant to support the maintenance of the Canal Wildlife Area. We have received £500 which has covered the cost of our two-yearly safety and woodland management inspection made by our Woodland Management Consultants and the remedial work that it recommended. This has included the felling of several dead ash trees that have succumbed to ash die back disease. We are extremely grateful to Gateway for helping us to keep the Canal Wildlife Area in such good condition so it can continue to be enjoyed by residents and visitors alike.
