Story
We are launching a fundraising campaign to raise £3,000 to reintroduce beautiful British native flowers and plants into the historic site of the Park Tunnel. All money raised will be matched by Nottingham Park Residents Association meaning that our final total will be £6,000. Every amount you donate will be worth double.
The planting will be accompanied by an interpretation board which will recognise and celebrate the biodiversity and history of the area.
Two areas of the tunnel will be rejuvenated with planting and will begin in October 2024. Fundraising will continue until all work has been completed and the interpretation board is in place with a dedication to the late Stephen Hyde for his work within the NPRA .

13 days agoThey're here! our first batch of UK native plants have arrived and are now getting planted in area 1 of the tunnel. We have also decided to add in a local wildflower the ”Nottingham catchfly". This plant used to be very common growing on the walls of Nottingham castle. There is a volunteer project to reintroduce the flower, so fingers crossed we can help by getting this local celebrity established along with the other species of wildflowers. A big thanks to all our supporters and we will be updating you again in the month ahead.

2 months agoWe have started to clear the area in the Park Tunnel & have rid the strips of the weeds. Action now means that these strips could lie fallow until October so any summer self seeded weeds can grow and then be removed prior to planting plugs in October. Massive thanks to Ligno Garden Services for clearing the area for us. To find out more about their excellent work - go to https://www.facebook.com/LignoServices/?locale=en_GB
