Please give us your feedback on these ideas for improving biodiversity in Debenham
On Monday 17th March 2025 the village neighbourhood plan biodiversity group, (Kate Scott, Richard Blackwell and Cllr John Sweet) met with Richard Parmee the Mid Suffolk Biodiversity Officer, and Teresa Davis our local district councillor for a walk around the village.
The aim of the walk was to identify areas belonging to, or managed by Mid Suffolk or the PC and consider how to improve the biodiversity within them to create wildlife corridors in the village.
These are the plans that were suggested and approved by all those on the walk as well as Cllr Kat Barlow who went on a follow up walk .
We are putting these plans out for consultation with residents. So please take a look and if you have any comments please go to the village website to fill in a feedback form. https://debenham.onesuffolk.net/
On the plan you can see that for some areas there is a second option that would depend on Debenham creating a community team of volunteers to maintain them. If you would be willing to be part of a group that gave up a couple of mornings a year to help weed and prune please let us know on the feedback form.
