David Bellamy Awards 2011

The Orchards Park is proud to announce that we have been awarded Gold in the David Bellamy Conservation Awards for the twelfth consecutive year.Granted only to parks which have demonstrated a sound commitment to the natural world, the David Bellamy Conservation Awards are described by Professor Bellamy as the ‘Green Olympics’ – and only go to parks which help protect and enhance the natural environment. Professor Bellamy commented: “Parks like this are creating wildlife wonderlands, and its time they were given well-deserved recognition for their environmental commitment.”  

LIVES

Two of our talented residents are raising money for LIVES (Lincolnshire Integrated Voluntary Emergency Services). Dorothy has designed and painted  a card that shows the birds that visit her garden, and Jean’s poem below: Trees and Shrubs a plenty, flowers by the score, Butterflies and bumblebees, who could ask for more? Bird song in the morning, through until it’s dark, Just some of the many pleasures, of life on THE ORCHARDS PARK… All proceeds go to LIVES First Responders. Since the year 2000, the Residents of The Orchards have raised £10,000.
