You are invited to take part in a consultation on green spaces in and around Norwich. They want your views on green spaces – benefits, issues, improvement, access, use, design, etc.
Well-designed green spaces are vital to our way of life. They include features that can be natural, like woodland and rivers, or man-made like parks, allotments, hedgerows, playing fields, cycleways, footpaths and even road-side verges.
Your views will inform the Greater Norwich Growth Board’s new Green Infrastructure Strategy for the areas of Norwich, Broadland and South Norfolk. This aims to deliver:
- A fresh approach to managing and improving existing green spaces to make sure they benefit as many people as possible, with a focus on inclusive access.
- A strategy for creating new green spaces in the area that will benefit people and nature.
To participate in the survey and be entered into a prize draw to win an annual family membership pass for the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, please visit https://www.greaternorwichgrowth.org.uk/projects/giconsultation/
Should you have any questions about this consultation, please e-mail greaternorwich@norfolk.gov.uk

The mobile library service is implementing changes. They are to decommission one mobile library and continue operaing five vehicles and an electric mini mobile (which is due for commission later in 2023). All routes and stops have been reviewed and in a number of cases the day and time which the mobile library visits has had to change to optimise mobile library resource for as many people and communities that they can.
If you are unable to visit a branch library, you can contact your local library and request a visit from the Home Library Service (HLS). This is operated in partnership with the Royal Voluntary Services (RVS).
A copy of the new timetable which includes Wreningham is here:
The new timetable’s introduction date is Monday 3rd July. All the new stop and route information will be on the website www.norfolk.gov.uk/libraries (from 30th June).
