[edit] Hilly Fields – Lewisham, south London

At Hilly Fields in Lewisham the community is growing a wildflower meadow, a biodiversity rich hedge and planting bulbs. Interpretation boards and signage have been put in so that people, especially local school children, can learn more about their local environment. A ‘bird champion’ scheme ensures that there is always food to attract the birds.

This scheme aims to improve biodiversity of a local green space involving children from a nearby school in an educational project on the site.

This project is one of the Greater London Authority’s schemes to tackle ‘areas of deficiency to nature' (more than 1km walking distance to a green space) – while protecting a nationally important habitat through land management methods.
