Hello
I took a walk along the WoL path recently to look at the spring flowers we planted and was very disappointed by the amount of rubbish that has accumulated around Coalie Park and along the paths.
A joint cleanup has been arranged with the WoL Conservation trust for Sunday 28th February 10.30am – 1pm.
As usual we are meeting in Coalie Park – this link shows where it is: http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=326617&Y=676480&A=Y&Z=110
Hope to see you there.
Best wishes
Don Giles

The Friends of Pilrig Park are holding a tidy-up from 10.00am – 12.00pm on Sunday 21st February. If you are free please come along. It would be great to see you there and you can join in for as little or as long as you want, depending on how much time you have to spare. Click the graphic for more details:
This event is open to all with an interest in the path, even though it pretty much all falls into Leith Links CC’s area. Leith Central CC is very interested in any findings and outcomes.
More information on the Facebook event page.

The Climate Challenge Fund is open for applications from community led-organisations including community councils.
Climate Change Minister Aileen McLeod has confirmed the Fund will continue for another year, after it was allocated £10.3 million in the Scottish Government’s Draft Budget 2016-17.
The hugely successful Climate Challenge Fund has supported 756 community-led schemes since 2008, including energy efficiency, sustainable travel, local food growing projects and initiatives to tackle waste.
We invite community-led organisations including community councils across to apply for a share of the £10.3 million funding with grants up to £150,000 available per project.
With application deadlines in February we encourage potential applicants to apply quickly
