March 2024 Biodiversity Update

The Parish Council continues to work on a Biodiversity Policy and Action Plan appropriate to the needs of the Parish.  The Council recognises that it is important that both the Policy and Action Plan can be maintained within the capacity of the Council and without significant increase to the Council Tax Precept.

Several Councillors are working on the draft Policy and the Action Plan which we anticipate may take several months to finalise.

In the meantime several initiatives are already in place:

  • The Annual Litter Pick Scheduled for Easter Weekend.

  • Biodiversity Training for Councillors

  • New tender for grass cutting and hedge trimming to meet current biodiversity standards of practice.
