Action on Carbon in Twyford (ACT)

We are a small group comprising two members of the Parish Council, a member of WinACC / Friends of the Earth and two others, one a co-opted member of St Mary’s PCC.  All of us are Twyford residents.

ACT’s aim is to encourage us all to take action to reduce our village carbon footprint and mitigate the effects of climate change.  We will post practical, basic ideas each month through the Twyford Information System, the Parish magazine, Pew sheet and Facebook reminding us that even small changes can be significant. We will be discussing further changes that can be made within the Parish to help focus on the need to deliver a cleaner, safer and greener  environment for us and for future generations.

Twyford Meads: Phase 2 – Restoration project now underway – Latest Photos

The restoration of the water meadows on the Twyford Meads continues despite the bad weather. Trowel Craft have made an excellent job of rebuilding the derelict culvert using handmade bricks and lime mortar. They are currently building new ‘bunny hatches’ which will eventually be used to control the flow of water through the water meadows.

Aquascience have completed the remodelling of the main stream involving the installation of new oak retaining boards plus landscaping of the surrounding banks. It just remains for grass seed to be sown.
