Dear Friends,

Our next community litter pick is on Sunday 12th April (see poster on this page). Please come along and keep the place tidy!

We are in the news!  BKCT is one of the local groups awarded a grant by Fife Climate Hub through our membership of FCCAN (Fife Communities Climate Action Network). This will support climate related activities. Our project involves creating a wildflower meadow and dead hedge for wildlife, various workshops and activities to get people involved with climate action including making bug hotels and bird boxes. See this link:

Recent events have been much enjoyed. These included nest box building, sharing knowledge about local history facilitated by Karen Masters, and a wildlife talk by Alison Irvine as last minute stand-in for Fiona Young's talk on the Silverburn Flax Mill restoration (which will be held instead in near future). Monthly 'Coffee & chat' sessions have been well supported.

We'll send out reminders of other future events nearer the time and attach below a copy of our winter/spring programme (click to see full pages).

Yours sincerely,

Aileen (Chairperson) and Alison (Secretary)
