I spent Sunday afternoon up in Westridge Woods with a group of local residents and other councillors. We are all wanting to see sensible forest management at Westridge Woods unlike the last time the company, F&W Forestry, undertook work up there.

π³There was a huge turnout for the Annual General Meeting of Wotton Community Land Trust on Monday evening at Blue Coat School. The Committee members have been working hard over the past year, and it was great to hear that they are now close to purchasing Brown's Piece / Hack Hill.

If you'd like to help to secure the future of this wonderful green space for the community and for nature, please do consider donating and becoming a member β with links on the WCLT website: www.wclt.org.uk
Further fundraising is planned this summer at Town Hall Teas on 10th August, where there will also be a silent auction for a beautiful Rob Collins painting, which has kindly been donated to WCLT.
The Committee has started to develop plans to manage the site over the short, medium and long term, to support nature and wildlife, improve the footpaths and to create a place that is great for people to visit and enjoy. We were assured that there would be many opportunities for everyone to get involved with practical tasks across the site too, as soon as the land has been purchased.
Thanks to Cllr Catherine Braun for this update #WottonUnderEdge
