Green Spaces

We are passionate about raising awareness of and celebrating Caerleon’s existing green spaces as well as looking at ways to improve, enhance and, where possible, create new accessible green spaces for the benefit of both people and biodiversity. Green spaces include both communal places and our own gardens.

What we've done and plan to do

We have met with the biodiversity team at Newport City Council to discuss their plans for Council owned land in Caerleon and also discussed ways in which Green Caerleon can be involved in promoting and enhancing biodiversity in Caerleon.

This has included:

• developing a wildflower meadow at Cambria Close

• leaving strips of unmown grass in the park by the comprehensive school

• promoting ‘No Mow May’

• exploring opportunities to develop a community garden and orchard in Caerleon.

• starting to create a ‘bee corridor’ through Caerleon.

• plans to create an ecology trail for residents and visitors to enjoy around Caerleon.
