Grant of £5,000 awarded in 2021. Total project cost £18,200
This project has created a circular walk within Cutteslowe Park. The walk is being used by all age groups, but is aimed particularly at children with a view to encouraging them and their families to visit the more natural areas of the park where there is greater biodiversity to enjoy and learn from. The walk starts at the café kiosk, located in the largest playground, and follows a circular, way-marked route which includes the Community Woodland.
The TOE grant funded part of the cost of improving some of the wetter sections of path within the Community Woodland with hoggin pathways.
Way markers have also been installed and a leaflet produced which includes a map, directions and what to look out for during the walk. An information board has been sited near the start of the walk.
The grant holder told us that the TOE grant had helped secure other funding. She wrote “We would like to thank everyone at TOE for their work on this project. The very generous donation went a long way to making the project feasible overall and without it I feel we would have struggled to get the circular walk underway. With sincere thanks for TOE's generosity and efficient administration.”
