Friends Of Arden Hall & the Coppice – March 2025 Meeting

Posted on Posted in Hyndburn's Nature Reserves, Pleck Meadow

As part of the new Hyndburn’s Nature Reserves project, PROSPECTS is looking to kickstart the return of the Friends of Arden Hall & the Coppice community group with the support of local project officer, Robert. The group has been responsible for a number of improvements at the site since its conception and will do so for many more years providing the continued support of the local community.

We are hoping to have an in-person meeting in March 2025 to discuss the future of the group and get activities up and running again.

If you have any interest in Peel Park & the Coppice LNR, please don’t hesitate to come along. Please contact robert.gabryszak@prospectsfoundation.org.uk, 01254 230348 or call in at 54 Broadway, Accrington, BB5 1EW to express your interest.

Furthermore please contact Robert if you have queries or want an update on the Friends Of group.

Pleck Meadow Grassland Condition Assessment 2024

Posted on Posted in News, Peel Park Pollinators at Peel Park and the Coppice LNR, Pleck Meadow

Pleck Meadow has its third annual assessment.

Pleck Meadow received its third annual Grassland Condition Assessment on the 8th July, 2024.

The results show that the "cut and collect" management is working as the grass sward and presence of negative indicator species has decreased significantly. Seed sowing and plug planting have also increased the number of species present on the meadow.

Read the full report here!
