About the project
PROJECT TITLE: Bankfield Community Growing Project
LOCATION: Bolton
FUNDING: Awarded £9,700 in Round Five of the Greater Manchester Green Spaces Fund
DELIVERED BY: Bankfield Community Growing Project
The idea
The aim of this project is to restore this growing project to its former glory. The site has unfortunately fallen into considerable disrepair and has become unsafe for volunteers.
Due to the culturally diverse nature of the local community, the knowledge and skills brought from all over the world offer an exciting prospect to grow more exotic vegetables and plants alongside native vegetation.
The project will increase biodiversity in the community and offer a safe, friendly environment for everyone to access, share ideas, and come together as a community.
