We have been working with members of the community helping them learn new skills in identifying and surveying wildlife on public greenspaces, schools and churches.
Funding from Planet Purbeck Festival has enables us to put on more natural history courses for the community to help more people learn and connect with nature around them.
Find out more from the project team about the flood and coastal risk management strategy being developed for the area from Portland Underhill to Wyke Regis.
The survey on the essential and enhanced options the green spaces on Swanage Seafront has now closed.
The cliffs that back onto Swanage North Beach are actively unstable and will experience further instability and cliff-top recession in the future, up to 100 residential and commercial premises are located within this area, and many of these also own different parts of the cliff slope and so are responsible for management of instability issues in the cliff area. Unless actions are taken to slow down the process, these premises will increasingly become more exposed to cliff recession that could ultimately cause their loss.
Everyone is invited to the Grand Opening Ceremony of the new art trail ‘Flooding Swanage with Art’ on Friday 3rd November. We will gather at Heritage Square at 3.30pm for a 4pm official opening by the Mayor of Swanage.
