Environmentalists buzzing over £250k funding for bee corridor in Hackney (www.hackneycitizen.co.uk)

An environmental charity is “thrilled” after being awarded close to £250,000 to create a four-kilometre corridor for pollinators in Hackney.

ecoACTIVE, which uses a hands-on approach to teach people about sustainability and conservation, successfully applied for National Lottery cash for its Hackney Buzzline project.

The idea is to plant a green passageway, with the help of local residents, for bees and other wildlife to travel along.

Pollinators have lost huge swathes of their habitats in the UK, with almost all wildflower meadows having been destroyed, and many species are at risk.

Buzzline will form a link between four parks – Hackney Downs, Millfields, Clapton, and Mabley Green.
