## **Annual Report October 2023 to September 2024** View East from the Discovery Centre **Friends of Combe Valley is a Registered (in England) Charity Number: 1163581** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## **Friends of Combe Valley** ## **Introduction** Our work has continued and in particular the community garden around the Discovery Centre is increasingly well established and more people have learned about the park’s beauty. _The southern border of the car park in June_ ## **Events** ## _**Presentation to Councillors and Council Officers: January 27**_ A number of councillors in both Hastings and Rother are very active in their support of the park, but we wanted to offer others a chance to learn about the park at a special meeting. At the meeting Julie Willard provided information about Friends of Combe Valley, Emma Ramsden explained the role of Groundwork (GW) as agents of the Combe Valley Countryside Park CIC (CIC) and her role as their manager in the park, Pete Hunnisett described the different habitats of the Combe Valley Park and Jamie Parsons outlined the project of Sussex Wildlife Trust to clear back the reed beds. 2 / 12 ## **Friends of Combe Valley** ## **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## _**The Great Big Green Week – June 9**_ In June we had our third Great Big Green event, which increased awareness of the Park's role as a green space and its importance in developing a diverse and healthy environment, with an emphasis on preventing further climate change. The weather was dry but windy and mainly sunny, so stalls were set up outside, with a variety of activities and games. Inside the Discovery Centre there was an excellent exhibition of wildlife photographs and documents about the Country Park plus a display of recipes for swapping and copying. There was a good attendance with about 80 visitors and around 20 children as well as 30 people linked to stalls and 14 volunteers from the Friends: not forgetting 6 Morris dancers plus an accordionist ## _**Open day on September 29**_ This successful open day was a chance to welcome people to the Discovery Centre and the park generally, to show-case what we do, encourage people to join the Friends and become volunteers in the park. About 50 people attended and we gained 7 new members, with many offering to volunteer. _Cliff with his hand made rake and on the right the exhibition inside the Discovery Centre_ 3/12 **Friends of Combe Valley** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## _**Nature Detectives**_ Emma Ramsden, who is employed by Groundwork South (GW) on behalf of the Combe Valley Countryside Park CIC (the CIC) continued to provide sessions in the park for families, which she started through the Friends in the summer of 2021. In total 9 Nature Detectives days have been delivered this year, 5 with GW in collaboration with FCV and 4 by GW as stand-alone events or incorporated in the Big Green Day and the Open Day. 97 children and 67 adults have participated meaning that 164 people have engaged in these sessions in 2024. Session have included nature discovery both in the Combe Valley Community Garden and on the beach at Glyne Gap. They have also included gardening for wildlife, simple herb growing and plenty of nature and seasonally focused arts and crafts. Ten FCV volunteers have contributed their time and effort to these sessions over the year giving 64 volunteer hours to these sessions. ## **Social Evenings** In January 2024 Julie Willard arranged a social evening to give people connected to the park an opportunity to get together, to relax - natter, do craft work and play board games. This has become a regular feature now the fourth Wednesday of the month and provides an informal venue for members and subscribers to get together _._ ## **Conservation work** This has been a very productive year for the FCV Volunteers, along with the support of the CIC, working alongside (GW) and ably assisted by corporate volunteers from Hastings Direct. 4 / 12 **Friends of Combe Valley** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## **Highlights include:** ## _**The Community Garden**_ Planting of new mixed native hedging around the Community Garden, including stripping off turf and erecting stock fencing to offer protection. Subsequent mulching, weeding, watering and on-going care has enabled the whips to get established and survive the dry summer period. Hedge trees have been planted within the hedge line, with margins left uncut to help create corridors, promote bio-diversity and provide cover for small mammals and overwintering for invertebrates. The tree line between the middle and third tier has been extended by planting additional native trees, further improving the provision of wildlife corridors. The installation of protective cages, mulching and an intensive watering programme enabled the trees to get well established through the dry summer period. Natural meadow expansion on the newly extended Community Garden area has been encouraged and managed with the inclusion of mown winding pathways to enable visitors to appreciate the flora and fauna with minimal disturbance. An on-going meadow management plan will see rotational mowing, with “cut and clear” operations to ensure a mixed habitat is maintained whilst wildflower colonisation is promoted. The Native Tree Nursery has been established within the Community Garden space. This area has been enclosed by stock fencing and a perimeter hedge, to provide protection and shelter for the trees, along with more diversity of habitat. The fence posts are already being adopted as perches for several species of birds. The Friends Meadow is an on-going project which goes from strength to strength, the “cut and clear” mowing management scheme is aiding the establishment of a diversely populated meadow space, again with mown pathways to enable visitors to appreciate the space up close with minimal disturbance. Further yellow rattle seed has been dispersed to help weaken the grass and further encourage wild flower growth. 5/12 **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## **Friends of Combe Valley** We have seen a marked increase in the numbers of insects, small mammals, feeding birds and hunting raptors within the Community Garden Space. ## _**Elsewhere in the Park**_ The Haven Copse and Combe Hedge at the eastern edge of tier three is maintained with weeding, “cut and clear” of the surrounding grass, replacement of saplings, mulching and watering. Although watering at this more remote location present logistical problems. Work continues to manage Ash Die Back within the “Long Wood”. Periodically wind felled trees are safely lowered to the ground and local use is made of the timber within the wood as wildlife habitat piles and towers. On-going park maintenance projects include the cutting up and removal of fallen trees on the dismantled railway, cutting up and removal of a fallen tree in the Gorringe, clearing and cutting back vegetation on footpaths, litter picks around the park and along the beach and a major clean up after an incursion by travellers, along with repairs to damaged raised beds. A group of gardeners have repaired, painted and planted up the original raised beds with a selection of flowers and herbs. Hastings Direct volunteers joined the Friends to further extend the elevated pathway (Platform One), to enable walkers to navigate around a normally flooded section of the Dismantled Railway. Other volunteers from Hastings Direct have assisted n the digging out of the meadow/car park pathway. 6 / 12 **Friends of Combe Valley** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## _**Signs for the park**_ New park signage has been designed and purchased. The replacement of signs at various entrances to the park is being undertaken by the Friends, with just 5 left for installation. A survey is also on-going to record of the condition of the existing marker posts within the park, with a view to renovating / replacing them in due course. ## _**Furniture**_ The Friends have constructed and erected five new rustic benches from locally coppiced sweet chestnut. These are located throughout the Community Garden and provide a number of very welcome places for visitors to rest a while to appreciate the beauty of the space. ## _**Booklets**_ A successful application was made to the Aviva Wild Isles Fund for funding to create and publish three booklets about the flora and fauna of the park, to be given free to visitors to the park. The scheme involved crowdfunding for the project with Aviva match funding the amounts raised. East Sussex County Council also supported the project with similar match funding. 26 members of the public supported the project, raising just under £600, which with money from ESCC and Aviva took the total to just under £2000. The first booklet on butterfly and moth species was published in August, with the other two on birds and insects were published in November. The booklets were written by Pete Hunnisett who used his photos to illustrate the text and designed by Karl Beaney. 7/12 **Friends of Combe Valley** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## _**Rainwater harvesting**_ In August East Sussex County Council gave us a grant to use the roof of the storage container to harvest rainwater. The design and installation of a pitched roof was started in September and has been completed since then. ## _**Future plans**_ On-going and future projects by the Friends include - Along the western edge of the Friends Meadow erection of several bays of sweet chestnut post and rail fencing in the traditional Sussex style, to create a feature. - Between the meadow and car park continuing the pathway to enable safer movement for visitors. - The grass area around the picnic benches in front of the Discovery Centre is to be reinforced with a rubber grid through which the grass can grow. - In the work area to the side of the Friends storage container installing a removable shelter to provide protection from rain and sun. - Installing water containers at Eastern end of Tier Three for localised water supply to maintain Haven Copse and Combe Hedge - To create a vehicle entrance to tier two from the Freshfields car park to make the community garden vehicle free, whilst maintaining access for ambulance, contractor and Environment Agency vehicles. ## **Warden service** The warden service has continued more informally since there are fewer incidents. As has been noted in previous reports the presence of the wardens helps contribute to the peace of the park. Making caterpillars on an open day 8 / 12 **Friends of Combe Valley** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## **Volunteers** The activities outlined in this report rely on volunteers and their contribution is substantial. The following are the totals, from our records and estimates of time spent on: - i. Conservation work about 2,200 hours, including the regular Thursday mornings and numerous other tasks around the park - ii. Other events – about 500 hours over the events set out above, the social evenings and events in partnership with GWS for the CIC - iii. Wardens – this has not been formally recorded: currently 6 wardens walk regularly in the park and deal, as appropriate, with any information received about the park. - iv. Administration, including dealing with calls about security and planning issues, as well as design help from Karl amounts to about 1,200 hours during the year. Overall about 4,100 hours during the year, with a comparatively small band of volunteers, now numbering around 50 and we continue to welcome new volunteers and all their help is much appreciated. In addition, Hastings Direct has sent several teams of volunteers over the year to help in the park, and their help is much appreciated. We were delighted that Julie Willard’s substantial contribution to our work was recognised with her award as a volunteer of the year by Hastings Voluntary Action at their AGM in November 2023. Like any army of any worth, the Friends march on their stomachs. The volunteers are very appreciative of the refreshments provided after the Thursday Volunteering sessions. All manner of culinary delights are served up by Teresa, to whom many thanks are due. **Members and Subscribers** During the year as we got used to using Mailchimp, we have divided our members into subscribers, who have not paid a subscription during the current year and members, who have paid. We have 101 subscribers, of whom 3 do not have email addresses, so contact is less regular and 74 members. 9/12 **Friends of Combe Valley** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** We do not want to exclude anyone because they do not have the means to contribute, so we accept £1 a year as the minimum amount for membership and we are grateful that most members pay £10 a year. 42 of our members subscribe on a direct debit through Donorbox, which is collected on line or by a standing order to our bank account (which saves on the charges of Donorbox). Altogether these contribute a regular annual payment of £376. We are very grateful for all these contributions to our work. ## **Issues in Park** Unfortunately the park continues to attract problems: there is some antisocial behaviour and still too much litter is left behind, but more importantly continued pressure from development proposals threaten the park. ## **Bulverhythe Recreation Ground:** Last year there were plans to put a golf driving range and club house on the upper tier in front of the Discovery Centre, this was dropped, but it was followed by a proposal by Hastings And Rother Sports Trust which owns Horntye Park Sports Complex to move their grounds to the upper tier also with a clubhouse directly in front of the Discovery Centre. Both FCV and the CIC objected to this proposal and it appears that they are moving elsewhere. In response, FCV got together with the CIC and GW to discuss a plan for the whole of the Bulverhythe Recreation Ground, to ensure that the whole area is maintained for both organised sport and informal recreation as well as enhancing the biodiversity of the whole area. For the lower tier, which was threatened with a housing development by Hastings BC, we are working towards the possibility of creating a wet woodland which would ameliorate the regular flooding as well as providing a pleasant area for walking and indeed more active exercise. One particular proposal is to join the raised walkways at both the western and eastern end of the bund by the Gorringe Stream, to make a path for pedestrians and cyclists which would be above the current flood levels and so accessible all the year round. 10 / 12 **Friends of Combe Valley Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** For the upper tier with the Discovery Centre, we are proposing to extend the community garden further to the east and provide an exercise track around the whole tier. ## _**Antisocial behaviour**_ Reference has already been made to the problems of litter in the park. There was again an attempt by travellers to take over the field around the Discovery Centre. They were quickly moved on, but once again they proved themselves to be very messy visitors. ## **Funding** Reference has already been made to the Booklet project and the grant from East Sussex County Council for the rainwater project. We also continue to work closely with the CIC and GW, in implementing funding which they obtain. A special thanks is due to Julie Willard, who as in previous years ran a plant sale from her home raising money for Friends of Combe Valley ## **Conclusion** It is good to report that although there continue to be challenges, we have been able to contribute to the development of the park with the CIC and their agents GW. 11/12 **Friends of Combe Valley** **Annual report October 2023 – September 2024** ## **Links and contacts** ## **Friends of Combe Valley** Combe Valley Countryside Park Café & Discovery Centre Freshfields, Bexhill, East Sussex, TN38 8FB email: team@friendsofcombevalley.co.uk website: https://friendsofcombevalley.co.uk/ ## Combe Valley Countryside Park https://combevalleycountrysidepark.com/ Groundwork South h ttps://www.groundwork.org.uk/hubs/south/ correspondence to William Ackroyd 501 Bexhill Road St Leonards on Sea TN38 8AT 01424 539 739 07419 741266 _Bee orchids near the Discovery Centre_ 12 / 12 Friends of Combe Valley Icharrty Number111635811 ¢NDs Friends of Combe Valley Registered Charity Number: 1163581 Trustees Annual Report and Financial Statements For the year ended 30th September 2024 Friends of Combe VallÈy Icharity Number111635811 CONTENTS OFTHE FINANaALsfATEMENts FOR PERIOD ENDED 30- SEPTEMBER 2024 CONTENTS Page Report of the Trustees 2to5 Independent Examinerfs Report Receipts and Payments Account Statement of Assets and Lrabilities Notes to the Accounts 9tolO IIPoge Friends of Combe Valley (Charity Number {11635811 TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30- SEPTEMBER 2024 The committee of Friends of C0mL￿ Valley presents Its annual rel￿)rt and financial ststements for the year ended 30, September 2024.
