Confirmed events:
Community Bee Garden work party:
There is evidence that populations of bees and other pollinators are less healthy and abundant than they have been. If action is not taken, pollinator declines will have serious implications for biodiversity, food production and your garden.
The Community Bee Garden at Clift Meadow is trying to address this issue by providing food water and shelter throughout the seasons. This however can’t be achieved without your help. If you would like to help the Bees, please come along to one of our monthly work groups and help make the bees a home to be proud of.

Saturday 17th May: Bramley Village Fete
Come and say hello to us at the Village Fete and enter the (free) "Name the Elm" competition. We wish to give names to the 5 Elm trees recently planted in St James Park. The 5 winning names will each win a "Hedgehog in a bag" with the name of the Elm embroidered on it. A great chance to be a part of Bramley's local history.
The elm tree has been regarded as a symbol of wisdom and intuition. In Celtic mythology, the elm was associated with the god Lugh, renowned for his intelligence and skill. The tree's fine-grained wood was highly valued by craftsmen, reinforcing its connection to wisdom and craftsmanship. Let's hope are names are picked with wisdom and intuition.
Want to become a Wilder Bramley member and enjoy the benefits? Membership forms will be available throughout the fete, we would love to have you onboard.
Watch this space for more updates.
So what do you think of this lot then, changing our names?
"I'm not sure what the Elm they are thinking of".
