The Colne Valley Regional Park
The Green Team have reinstated ten neglected and overgrown allotments at a site in Slough. This was thanks to a maintenance visit with corporate volunteers from SEGRO and CBRE and the Groundwork South Green Skills Team, where they were joined by Tan Dhesi, MP for Slough.

There has been much debate recently about the Green Belt, prompted largely by developers and think tanks arguing that parts of it are of such poor quality they are no longer worth protecting. The Government needs to create a regional and national plan to address varied needs for development and for the natural environment.
We take a closer look at the Green Belt and try to explain more about the crucially important role it plays in maintaining a balance between the environment in which we live, and the containment and management of urban development.
We’d like to take the opportunity to say a huge thank you to the Colne Valley Volunteers as well as all the other amazing volunteer groups helping to look after our beautiful regional park!
