Molescroft Wildlife Network has had a busy few months. Thanks to a Community Action Grant from East Riding Council & HEY Smile Foundation we:
- Produced a leaflet, thank you to Yorkshire Wildlife Trust for the help their wonderful design team gave us (please see below)
- Volunteers delivered the leaflet to 3500 houses in 2 weeks, thanks to the swift work by volunteers from the Beverley Wombles, Civic Society, Molescroft Parish Councillors and MWN
- We are arranging a Molescroft Hedgehog drop in fun day event on Sat 6 April. Ann Day from Wolds Hedgehog Rescue will be our keynote speaker. Thank you to Jo Rawson & Andy Steele, (YWT #TeamWilder), Lucy Baldwin (North & East Yorkshire Ecological Data Centre), Anthony Hurd (Smile Foundation, Green and Blue Social Prescribing), and many others who have been very supportive and are contributing to this.
The funding received from Molescroft Parish Council has enabled 2 Ecological Recovery Management plans to be commissioned. Recommendations are being drawn up by:
- Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, for the Millennium Wildlife Haven
- Caring for God’s Acre, for St Mary’s Graveyard, Molescroft Road
Thank you to Molescroft Parish Council, St Mary’s Church and ERYC for their support with these.
It has been remarkable how friendly and supportive individuals and organisations have been, it’s inspiring, thank you.
