They’ve planted trees, protected areas for rewilding and ensured there’s plenty for pollinators, but it’s not all plain sailing for the Beaumont School Sustainability Club.
In this week’s Environment Matters podcast, Beaumont School Sustainability Lead, Trudie Gorham, physics technician and Biodiversity Rewilding Lead Dr Lucy Bomphrey and Sustainability Club members, Tilly, Rosie, Dania, Evie, Darcy, Bella, Eliza and Phoebe tell Amanda Yorwerth about what they’ve done to make their school grounds more biodiverse, the problems they have overcome, and how working together on this has helped them in an environmentally challenging time.
