Round Diamond School Nature Project – Complete

FoGA Patrons Tim Lee & Sandra Barr attend with sponsor Peter Bays of ALF, and FoGA volunteers Anne, Terry & Martin

Friends of Great Ashby’s FoGA, Martin Morgan lead the project during the difficult COVID lockdowns, this meant it was a small team of volunteers mostly Keith Abrahams, Terry Butchart & Ian Dollimore, all ably supported by FoGA’s management team members Anne Lowe & Terry Tyler.

The Project was sponsored by the Friends of Round Diamonds, the Great Ashby Community, County Councillor Steve Jarvis, Ringway and the Adept Living Foundation.

The main purpose was to build a safe path with strong rail to allow the pupils all year round access.

Carefully engineered path & rail

Civil Engineer, Martin Morgan, ensured that the rail and path were engineered to a high standard (“It will last longer than us!” was the stock phrase!) – many of us learned new skills as we toiled on through the COVID muddle.
