Wardieburn Community Backgreen

 

The community backgreen at Wardieburn Road was established back in 2012-13 by Re:Solution working with local residents on behalf of Edinburgh Council, and is still going strong! What was once an unloved, overgrown area in the centre of a square of tenement, is now a greenspace project and a hub for community activities, showing that with some TLC, greenspaces can become long-term assets to local areas.

It’s success is a credit to local resident Anna Mcgregor, a keen gardener who took on the role of community gardener for the project. The group was provided with a shared tool shed and tool set, as well as raised beds. The neighbours work together to manage the site – please get in touch with Anna if you live locally and would like to get involved.
