Friends of Holmer Lake

Friends Of Holmer Lake was created to encourage all users of the grounds and water to enjoy them and participate in their upkeep.

 

There are many users of the lake; walkers, dog walkers, residents, ecologist, environmentalists, also anyone with an interest in fauna and flora, fishing, birds, waterfowl, wildlife, water life, etc.

 

Holmer Lake contains a diverse bio-structure that needs careful maintenance.  A major aim of our group is to open up the Lake and its surrounding countryside to all; to create access for wheelchair users around the lake circumference.   When we started only one path on one side of the lake had easy access.  All other routes required negotiating rough ground, tree roots or steep climbs. Many routes are now accessible in all weathers, in poor weather walking shoes and wellington are suggested.

Below we introduce some of our Friends.
