Nature Group Plan

WANLIP COMMUNITY NATURE GROUP

 

The Wanlip Community-Nature Charter asks residents to support the Community Nature Group and to do what they can to encourage and support Nature in their gardens and around the village.

 

The Parish Meeting has now approved the following plan of action for the Group.

 

The Nature Group was formed to identify, advise and implement initiatives that the Parish Meeting and residents can do to bring about improvement in our environment.  Specifically, it will:

 

  • Identify environmental supporting actions that residents could do in their gardens.
  • Give guidance on where residents can get practical environmental advice.
  • Form links with local organisations such as Severn Trent and The Wildlife Trust to exchange information.
  • Report to the Parish Meeting concerning actions being taken by the government and local councils to improve the environment.
  • Support the Parish Chairperson on issues relevant to nature.
  • Use village Fayres to promote practical ideas, particularly those that children can engage with to improve their knowledge.
  • Organise talks on relevant subjects of interest.
  • Lead any special nature projects.

 

To implement the above plan the group will:

 

  • Nominate a member of the group to be a lead person for each element of the plan.
  • Produce information sheets to support residents find information to improve their garden environment.
  • Report on progress, as things develop, to the Parish Meeting and residents.
  • Manage a small budget for practical items.
  • Welcome suggested subjects for investigation from residents.
