Report written by Sophie McClellan
This week we were back with Elaine at Urban GreenUp, and what a difference a few weeks makes! The last time we were here was our birthday when we weeded in the pouring rain and darkness. It was so lovely to turn up in the light this time and see how well the space was coming along!
After a quick run from Hope street, we arrived to see that the plants were flourishing, except for two weedy patches - this is where we came in. We made much quicker work of it in the light and the space is now ready for the rest of the bark to go down to allow the flowers to bloom. This is great news to help attract more pollinators to the area. Elaine has already seen a black bumble bee out of hibernation!
We were also treated to a discount code and some chocolates from our new partners Raleigh. I expect to see you all cycling to a group tun soon!
Excellent work team, I can't wait to come back in a few weeks and see the improvement! A great way for me to celebrate my 100th task!
URBAN GreenUP is a EU-funded project which aims at developing, applying and validating a methodology for Renaturing Urban Plans to mitigate the effects of climate change, improve air quality and water management and increase the sustainability of our cities through innovative nature-based solutions.
