Jubilee Wildlife Garden

It has come to our attention that people are reporting that they have been unable to get into the Jubilee Wildlife Garden.

The Parish Council would like to clarify that the latch for the big gate will remain padlocked at all times for safety reasons. The latch to the big gate was situated above the latch for the pedestrian gate and this often caused confusion with people leading to believe the pedestrian gate was locked when it was not.

A parish councillor this weekend, has very kindly taken time out of his Sunday afternoon to swap the latches around and a ‘horse riders’ latch has been attached to make it even easier to open the pedestrian gate.

The Jubilee Wildlife Garden is regularly accessed by senior members of our Parish and the Parish Council has facilitated Parishioners with disabilities to access the Jubilee Wildlife Garden on a regular basis. If there is anyone within our Parish with a disability struggling to access the Jubilee Wildlife Garden, please email: clerk@harlestonemanorpc.org.uk and the Parish Council will endeavour to support individual needs.
