Welcome to the Bourne United Charities
After the completion of the major works on the Abbey Lawn, which included the new fence, rebuilding of the wall on Abbey Road and various landscaping projects, the Trustees started to forward plan for future work on both the Abbey Lawn and the Wellhead Park.
To make sure that all work was carried out with commitment and of a quality both appropriate to conservation and the environment the Trustees decided that we should work to an approved standard.
In June 2010 Bourne United Charities started work to achieve ISO 14001 Environmental status, working with Greenhawk Environmental this standard has been achieved in 12 months, something that the Trustees and staff are very proud of.
We are shortly starting work on installing the bridges to both ends of the boardwalk on the central island next to St Peters Pool.
The Trustees have also received back tenure of the field adjacent to the Wellhead Parks south side. Plans for this are being prepared for a Nature Conservation Area with wild flower meadows and trees to attract birds, insects and wildlife to compliment what is already present. Regular updates are available on our website.
Chair of the Trustees.
