Friends of Pinn Meadows (FoPM)
FoPM is a group of local residents whose objective is to secure Pinn Meadows as a place of ecological interest and beauty, including the preservation, protection and improvement of the area.
The groups meets on the first Saturday of each month at 10.30am. The meeting point varies between St Martin's Approach, Kings College Road and Elmbridge Drive.
Activities/tasks include:
- river clearance
- Himalayan balsam removal
- litter picking
- ditch and scrub maintenance.

Funded improvements
The group has worked hard to receive additional Chrysalis funding for council amenities and, thanks to these funds, several muddy paths at the site have been resurfaced, a new information board, hedgehog house, kestrel box, kingfisher box, several bat boxes, additional benches and litter bins have been installed. FoPM has also worked closely with the countryside and conservation officer and flood and water management specialist on the drainage project bid.
