Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

A very big thank you to the team of new Green Champions from Bradford Teaching Hospitals who volunteered in the Urban Nature Reserve to kick off their new environmental sustainability project. Trees and shrubs in this wonderful wildlife habitat have recently been severely cut back so our plan is to return it to a state that benefits our native plants, animals and insects; the local nursery pupils will love to encounter them.

The team worked hard to remove unwanted plants, clear the meadow and woodland areas and and help us to create pockets we can plant more native and beneficial plants to provide an improve and more diverse wildlife habitat. Some brave volunteers put on gaiters and got stuck in clearing weeds and debris from the wildlife pond and cleared pockets where we can introduce suitable bog plants! Very much appreciated.
