The Conservation Volunteers www.tcv.org.uk
Want to get out and about in UK and help nature??
Green Places are necessary for emotional, physical and social well-being.
Park, fields and woods are great places to give young people learning opportunities that they cannot get in a classroom setting.
They're great places for exercise and physical activity - helping people get fit and feel good.
They're great for growing fresh, healthy food and bringing people together to share the work and share the harvest.
A well-used green place is a classroom, a gym, a playground and a sanctuary. It is a place that is good for people as well as for wildlife.
"The Conservation Volunteers are the unsung heroes of the environment.
Who does the back breaking work?
The Conservation Volunteers - we all owe them a great debt in my view." Sir David Attenborough,
Vice President.

Update on local issues from Green Lady
TVP - Briants Avenue, Caversham speeding at all times of the day - Local Councilor to look at 20mph for this busy road.
As we have had a fatality two years ago here and many elderly residents are asking me to have this section reduced or a crossing because they find it difficult to get across this busy road.
Still campaigning for improvements in this area.
Children's Festival this sat 11 - 4pm bring brollies but have a good time.
St John's Church Gosbrook Road this sat - 1 - 4pm - May Fair
If you care about your environment - shop local.
Greens call for 20mph in built up areas for safety.
Blocked drains, more places for school children needed but no space except small portacabins on much needed playing fields!!!, seeing that 10,000 playing fields have been sold off from 1979 - 1997 ( uk nat ecosystems 2011) Lack of bees in area.

In Reading we have a lovely old building and a recreation ground called Kings Meadow. This meadow or recreation ground.. it was given to Reading by George Palmer many years ago.
The Baths were first used in 1885!
We are campaigning to save the historic listed building from development.
