Current Projects
We are pleased to have recently secured funding for two new projects. Firstly from the Big Lottery Reaching Communities programme who are funding our project Building Sensory Gardens with Local Communities.
We will be working in partnership with a wide range of community organisations to support communities to build sensory gardens starting in Stratford Park and then further afield as the project develops over four years.

The field is becoming a place! It has pathways, fruit trees, entrance gates, picnic tables, a bog and two ponds, and benches to sit on and contemplate the view. On Tuesdays, volunteers meet to manage, mow and create habitats. Sarah’s Field is named after the girl who kept her horses here in the early 1900s. Her granddaughter, Pamela Thorpe, bequeathed the field to Berkeley Town Council as a green community space with a water meadow. On the site are toads, voles, fox and badger paths, resident starlings and sparrows.

From May, Stroud District Council, who own the land at Capel’s Mill, provided funding for us to do eight days of maintenance, which we have run as sixteen half days.
We are having monthly workdays through the winter, where a core of volunteers lead the maintenance, cutting back to improve access and visibility, litter picking, scything and raking up the meadow, while Richard’s team have been maintaining the young trees: removing tubes, tying up fallen trees, mulching with woodchip.

The GEM Project at The Beeches
The Tuesday group volunteers based at The Beeches Day Care Centre have been welcoming new GEM Project participants who have been signposted to us by our GEM Navigator Developer, Julie Wickham.
The group have been venturing in to new areas like gaining woodworking skills by making garden bird boxes along with a new swift box design that we have embarked upon making.

The Green Health Team has been working on a new project in partnership with The Beeches Day Care Centre, Beeches Green, Stroud. The centre, run by Gloucestershire County Council supports adults with physical and and mental disabilities.
Our contract work continues well with monthly visits to Rowcroft Medical Centre, Omnitrack at Rodborough Court, Tesco balancing pond (a site adjacent to Rackleaze Wetland) and our quarterly visits to The Apperley Centre, Stonehouse.
Our education project
Wild Classrooms aims to support children’s outdoor learning and builds on the foundations laid by our earlier educational projects, Get Growing and Growing Wild. The project is funded by the Cotswolds Conservation Board’s Sustainable Development Fund and was launched in January 2017. Tamsin, the Wild Classroom project officer, has developed free resources which link what’s going on outside with the primary science curriculum. Every participating school gets up to three free visits from Tamsin, a seasonal poster and a class scrapbook / notebook.

Since the last article in the newsletter Stroud Valleys Project and its regular Thursday volunteer group have been busy with habitat management work including the start of the annual comfrey ‘bash’ (cutting back) which was scythed (less messy than a brush-cutter), and the management of the newly planted hedgerow. This has suffered over the hot summer months and a number of plants have actually died which we will replace this coming autumn.
The volunteer group has also completely rebuilt the footbridge that crosses the ditch on site, a job which was achieved over two sessions to take down and build (see photos). We also hope to start giving the old boardwalk a wire brushing and wood preserve if weather will allow us!

Sensory Garden, Stratford Park, Stroud 
The Wednesday team have finished off the building of the pergola under the watchful eye of Mike McCrea, idverde contract manager at the park. The team has moved on to creating a large raised flower bed made from a Cedar of Lebanon tree (Cedrus libani) that had fallen in the park, increasing seating areas for the public by installing three oak benches and a hexagonal tree seat as well as completing a further section of footpath adjacent to the small child play area.
