Stradbroke Trust – Annual Report May 2020 to April 2021
A positive year for the Trust despite the pandemic.
We have been able to work with Rattlerow Farms to help create 2 new permissive footpaths Merritt Way and Tyrala Way which starts in the corner of the Village Gardens. The two paths are proving very popular and together with the existing network create a circular route around the village approximately 3.5 miles in length. Associated with this project we have recently planted another 40 metres of hawthorn hedging and done some light pruning in the orchard as well as the usual maintenance around the site.
The allotments are more popular than ever with just one vacant plot. Special thanks to the efforts of Mary Thompson and her new group of helpers at the Allotment Association who have created a very positive and welcoming atmosphere on site.
Thanks to all trustees for continuing their support through the year. As lockdown restrictions are lifted the Trust hopes to be able to engage in more beneficial projects and recruit a few new and younger trustees.
