Thank you for your project application idea, the project idea obviously hopes to address local community need. This project was taken to East Area Committee for consideration within the funding and criteria for EIP area funding. Following committee consideration this area project was then approved by the Executive Councillor for Environment, Climate Change and Biodiversity to a value of £1,000. This project will be a continuation of the current expanded into other streets as outlined in the application. A Council Officer will contact you as soon as resources allow in early 2023 in regards to bringing the project forward towards implementation.

Brilliant! can we please look to extend this to flats/high rises e.g. in Arbury? Lots of people without their own garden but no less in need of green space. Flats of course lend themselves to becoming vertical pollinator corridors to add to the horizontal ones you are creating on the ground.
@Ben Greig Ben - Your idea for Arbury can easily be posted as a project idea - it would therefore have a chance at gaining funding. To be delivered by city officers if resource available.
