“We are speaking up for the value of heritage to modern life, and developing approaches and programmes that make a real difference for heritage and people.”

Carole Souter, HLF Chief Executive

The CVCG is delighted that our ‘Flowers in the Vale’ project is being supported by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to embark on an ambitious scheme to recreate part of the Reserve as a traditional hay meadow, using traditional land management techniques and equipment.

You can read all about progress of this project, and the benefits it will bring to both the Reserve and the wider community here.
