Warm weather has returned, and the threat to life and limb of extreme cold has receded. It is time to take stock. 67 men and 24 women took advantage of the offer over the 84 days for which the shelters ran. All were homeless. The shelters offered 20 sleeping spaces: the average occupancy over the 84 days of the project was 16. The average length of stay for the guests was 15 days, which is testimony to the effective work of thethe GlassGlass DoorDoor andand SPEAR key workers who operated in the Vineyard Centre during the day, supporting guests into accommodation, jobs and reforming family connections. Across the borough, other partnerships were formed to support the work. Volunteers came from all over thethe boroughborough toto dodo a night shift. Local businesses responded with food and other items. Some local schoolsschools got involved too, preparing puddings for the guests and taking an interest in the outcome of the project. This is more than the milk of human kindness. This is a work of God, transforming lives, bearing one another’s burdens, showing practical love to the marginalised and the vulnerable. Glass Door,* the homelessness charity we partnered in this project, are encouraging us to do it again, only this time from the beginning of November 2018 through to the beginning of April 2019, with space forfor 3030 oror eveneven 3535 guestsguests eacheach night. This is a major challenge, both in terms of space, of time, and of cost. Having done it once, and having made such a big difference, I believe that we should do it again. We did not have a night shelter here in Kew, but the churches raised funds for Glass Door, supported them in prayer and donated woolly socks and hats for the guests. This is an opportunity for everyone to get involved, and to offer support for those on the edge of our society.society. Our life in Kew, in the main, is very comfortable: the least we can do is provide some sort of comfort to those who do not regularly have a roof over their head.

  • Richmond Biodiversity Action Plan
    1 The Local Biodiversity Action Plan for Richmond Executive Summary This document is the culmination of many years’ work by many organisations and charities, including the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, London Natural History Society, London Wildlife Trust, Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, The Royal Parks, Thames Landscape Strategy and Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, professional bodies, communities and local residents within the borough. The Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP) in Richmond sets out the strategic context of biodiversity, which was first raised at the Rio Summit in 1992. This led to the development of a UK Biodiversity Action Plan, which has raised public awareness of biodiversity and provided guidance on the preparation of Local Biodiversity Action Plans. This Local Biodiversity Action Plan for the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames sets out the framework for the protection, conservation and enhancement of wildlife within Richmond upon Thames. LBAPs are seen as an innovative approach to wildlife conservation as they are moving away from the traditional ‘naturalist’ approach, which to many appears elitist and unwelcoming, and are striving to broaden the constituency of those interested and involved. It is a widely held belief that making a Biodiversity Action Plan relevant to local people through active involvement and consultation will ensure pro-active action ‘on the ground’. The list of habitats and species in this plan is not exhaustive, although the Richmond Biodiversity Action Plan aims to concentrate on and prioritise those habitats and species, which are rare, in decline, or characteristic of Richmond, which will help raise the profile of biodiversity. The priority habitats within this borough, which are also of regional and national importance, are: Acid Grassland, Ancient Parkland/Veteran Trees, Broadleaved Woodland, Reedbeds and Tidal Thames.
