How can I get involved with the Camden BeeLine project?
We are inviting all schools and businesses in Camden to join us on this journey.
Who can join the BeeLine project?
Do you want to get involved? Are you ready to start making some wilder greener spaces that support wildlife, pump out oxygen, draw down carbon and look great? No space is too small to become a wilder, more nature-friendly green space. All you need is the tiniest bit of space, from windowsill to a garden. Every school and business is welcome to join!
Schools
Helping to rewild green spaces is fun, and links to so many parts of school learning. Some schools are planting orchards and learning how to be tree guardians to help them thrive. Others are digging in ponds and hedgerows or sowing wildflower meadows. How about designing and making some welcoming ‘bug hotels’, wildlife shelters and hibernation havens? Whatever space you have, we are here to offer advice.
Businesses
There are grants of £300-500 available for Camden Town Unlimited/ Euston Town BID members to help kick start your rewilding intervention. This money would go towards procuring planters, soil, plants and other equipment. Whatever your space, we are here to offer support and guidance to help you kickstart your BeeLine journey.
What can I do to get started now?
