News on Levenshulme Bee Network

Hi everyone, Things are looking good for 2020! The 'Our Active Neighbourhood' projects are in full swing and we have updates and events aplenty. 

The contributions on the Commonplace website have exceeded 4000 now and we are crunching all this data to make sure we have your priority issues in the area! Thanks for all your input so far, it's really helpful.

We're having a little catch up this evening at Levenshulme Arcadia Library to go over project areas and next steps.  Updates for this one include, our Bike Hangar trials and our future A6 Parklet , a couple of our 'quick wins' As well as the work with Sustrans to help co-design the filtered neighbourhood and the work they've been doing in schools to support re-design with the wider community.

The LBN Advocates meetings are a chance for people to help get involved with spreading the word, help with poster distribution and survey assistance to really drill down on changes possible...the next being a 'street clutter survey'!

Details below and more info here

Next up in the calendar is a big one. We're working with Sustrans to take our ideas, suggestions and issues from Commonplace and events around the community so far and turn them into the basis of the design for our filtered neighbourhood. 

The first of these co-design workshops take place from 5pm to 8pm on Wednesday the 29th of Jan. We URGE you to come along. You can drop in and out - there will be hot food and drinks and lots of expert support to help understand the design process - NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED, JUST YOUR LOCAL KNOWLEDGE!

We have an Eventbrite page to get an idea fo numbers if you'd like to confirm attendance  here
