Calling all local #wildlife enthusiasts!

🌳Can you help us to buy a community woodland in #Sheffield?

Friends of #BolehillWood is launching an urgent #fundraising campaign to bring part of the #Woodseats and #NortonLeeswood into local ownership, after the wildlife area came up for sale in August 2023.

Beautiful planting as part of the Castlegate regeneration #Sheffield A low maintenance contribution to the city’s flood defences. Part funded by the EU. What’s not to like? #GreyToGreen

@Haydn You can actually walk from the back of the railway station... past Park Hill flats... over the roundabout... and follow the #GreyToGreen planting all the way to Kelham island... where there are lots of bars & restaurants... It's so beautiful... and similar planting is appearing all over the city centre... Castlegate used to be a particularly ugly bit of ring road with grim looking bus stops...
