Wilder Community Award
For a community showing exemplary commitment to wildlife and/or the environment.
Winner: Jenny Gifford and the 3Gs (Green Gardening Group)
Jenny is a powerhouse of community nature conservation. She embodies the Team Wilder vision. With volunteers Pete and Karolina, she offers free gardening services to her neighbours in Brightlingsea and Colchester if they commit to making one improvement to their gardens for wildlife. She has installed nest boxes, thriving wildlife ponds, hibernacula and pollinator friendly planting, and, perhaps most importantly, inspired the hearts and minds of her clients.
