Welcome to the website for Chapel-en-le-Frith's Biodiversity Group!
We are a voluntary group interested in putting into practice a biodiversity action plan to address the complex factors that affect ecosystems and wildlife habitats in Chapel-en-le-Frith.
We welcome anyone with a love for nature and wildlife, interested in protecting our precious ecosystems. Membership of the Group is currently free, and available to anyone who lives or works in Chapel-en-le-Frith or surrounding areas.
We have agreed five priority areas of concern for 2025:
- monitoring biodiversity in CEF
- encouraging and supporting swift populations
- the health of our waterways
- litter picking to protect and encourage wildlife
- exploring options to support biodiversity on currently unused land in our parish
We will also be supporting other ongoing activities throughout the year, such as RSPB's annual Big Garden Birdwatch and toad patrols.

Congratulations on this new website.
ReplyDeleteWith farmer Peter Barratt, we have been trying, for some time, to improve conditions for wildlife on our fields in Chapel-en-le-Frith and to monitor biodiversity there. See www.downleewildlife.com
It would be interesting to see, via this blogspot, what other like-minded people in Chapel Parish are up to.
Thank you Peter and we're delighted to have you onboard!
