A community initiative with a constitution. We assist in managing and maintaining the site in order for wildlife and nature to thrive.
This project aims to improve biodiversity by creating and maintaining a safe, thriving bird sanctuary for wildlife and nature. Currently the site is a sanctuary for a wide variety of birds and wildlife. A resident tawny owl has been observed in on the site. It will provide an accessible green space where residents and visitors can enjoy, observe, and take pride in their local environment in a borough with high redevelopment. The initiative will support physical and mental wellbeing, reduce social isolation, and encourage community engagement through shared conservation and maintenance activities. People of all ages, cultures, and backgrounds will work together with a common purpose, developing skills, learning about nature, and behaviour change to a litter-free environment. Environmental improvements will enhance air quality, support sustainable streets, and increase climate resilience and a reduction in pollution. The project will benefit the local community, future generations, and Greenwich Council by reducing long-term land maintenance costs through lasting environmental improvements and a strong volunteer-led stewardship model.
