This is part of the Green Communities project, which is a partnership between Plymouth City Council, The National Trust, Devon Wildlife Trust, Real Ideas Organisation and Zebra Collective.

The aim is to connect communities with their local green space and improve nature in the city by collaborating with groups in the nearby area.The project is focused in 3 key areas, those being Central Park, Devonport and the west of the city.

Green Communities will be putting on a day full of nature themed activities at the Cemetery to bring to light the amazing wildlife that can be found in the most unlikely places. We are doing this as a part of love your burial grounds week so make sure to stop by and take part!
