The Housing Community Gardening Team
This is a new service set up by the Housing Department and supported by Cllr Champion to improve the quality of horticulture and biodiversity on housing estates. Working with and supporting residents in using outdoor communal spaces on estates for gardening and food growing. There is no additional charges associated with the team and the work they do. Having visited the estate the team has identified some basic maintenance issues that need doing. This includes regenerative pruning, weeding and generally tidying up. This work is ongoing. The team can be contacted at [email protected]
Outdoor communal areas improvements
Thornhill Houses has been awarded special funding to improve communal garden areas including a new pergola , a games table and more bike storage and space for prams.
Recycling and Bin Chamber Improvements
We have been approved for improvements to the bin sheds, recycling and composting bins. The new bin and recycling chambers have been installed with a green roof. The aim is to make food waste, general waste and recycling accessible to residents within easy access and to increase recycling capacity. The next phase is to create more space for bikes and prams in the empty bin chambers.
