The Shared Prosperity Fund Green Spaces project in South Cambridgeshire aims to enhance local outdoor spaces with a strong focus on sustainability and community engagement. Two villages within the Local Connections distribution area have benefited from the project. Work is well underway at De Freville Road, Great Shelford, where a community orchard has been planted in the garden area of the flats, with ornamental cherry trees lining the pathway leading to the main road. Work is expected to start in April at Ware Recreation Ground in Little Shelford, which will see replacement fencing around the play area to create a secure space for the younger residents. A key focus of the project is biodiversity, with native species, wildflower planting, and shrubs introduced to support pollinators. www.scambs.gov.uk
