Chesham Environmental Group is restoring an historic wetland near the River Chess, creating ponds and habitats to support wildlife including damselflies, voles and otters.

For this quarter’s news item, we asked two students volunteering with us as part of their work towards their Duke of Edinburgh (DofE) Awards to give us their perspectives on working with CEG and litter picking in Chesham.   We hope that this will inspire others.

A section of the River Chess which runs along the top of Chesham Moor nearby Moor Road has been the subject of a very successful restoration project. Read how CEG were involved.

We take the health & safety of our volunteers seriously.  With that in mind, we have been working on a Health & Safety Policy which we hope will be formally adopted shortly.

Read the story of how our members became fully trained in scything.

The group took part in the Co-op Field Biodiversity Enhancement Project
