Andrew Needham reminds that as well as the archeological studies being carried out on the hillforts, a charitable trust has been set up to
protect and enhance the wildlife habitats and historic heritage on
and around Cheshire's Sandstone Ridge. The Trust is looking for volunteers and Andrew notes the following from Councillor Eleanor Johnson, one of the trustees:
“The
Trustees of the Sandstone Ridge Trust are keen to build on the work
that the Habitats and Hillforts programme has delivered so successfully
by protecting and enhancing the natural and historic environment;
improving public understanding and knowledge of the area and improving
access to the beautiful Sandstone Ridge landscape.
“The Trustees are also keen to encourage volunteers from the local area who are interested in nature conservation and / or heritage in Cheshire to come forward with ideas for activities, to get involved with what's on or to be kept informed of future opportunities.”
The Sandstone Ridge Trust is proud to announce that it has recently been approved for charitable status by the Charity Commission. The new charitable organisation has been set up to protect and enhance the wildlife habitats and historic heritage on and around Cheshire's Sandstone Ridge. The Ridge stretches from Frodsham and Helsby in the north part of Cheshire West and Chester right down to Bickerton Village in the south of the Borough.
A group of six voluntary Trustees have worked together with the support of officers from Cheshire West and Chester Council over the last 18 months to build on the work of the Heritage Lottery Funded Habitats and Hillforts Programme. The landscape partnership scheme delivered by a number of organisations enabled a wide range of activities to take place over the last three years.
