Environmental Activities

The responses clearly show an interest in the environment through specifically

  Protecting Wildlife Habitats 112
  Maintaining Footpaths 100
  Surveying Flora & Fauna (e.g. trees and birds) 60

A number of respondents also suggested

  • Bat protection Group
  • Badger Conservation
  • Hedgehog Protection
  • Litter collection scheme
  • Bottle bank, paper & can collections

(At the time of writing the report, the recycle collections have started within the villages)

In addition, a whole range of comments were recorded and which can be summarised by many respondents:

  • welcoming the above initiatives
  • wanting overgrown verges and hedgerows (e.g. Heath Road to Whitmore on the A53) dealt with
  • the adoption of roads on Water's Edge by Local Authority
  • seeking better maintenance of local footpaths
  • seeking commitments by the Highways Authority – "we pay our rates"
There is clear support for formal environmental initiatives.
