  • Tree Planting
    Annual Report 2011 12/8/11 16:04 Page 1 Annual Review 2010 / 2011 The Birmingham Civic Society Annual Report 2011 12/8/11 16:04 Page 2 Message from Paul Farrow Chairman of the Trees Committee of The Birmingham Civic Society I am delighted to present Birmingham Trees for Life’s report on the fifth year of its activities. I have enjoyed taking over the role from Rob Blyth, my predecessor – a difficult act to follow! This planting season saw 144 large trees, 4890 saplings and 40 fruit trees planted at 20 sites. Over the five year period we have planted nearly 15,000 trees on almost 100 sites – a magnificent addition to Birmingham’s green canopies. This has only been possible due to the support of Birmingham City Council and once again thanks are due to Councillor Mullaney, who as the Cabinet Member responsible for Leisure, Sport and Culture, has been instrumental in ensuring that financial support continues. Our thanks also to other Councillors and the Leader of the Council too, who attended a number of the 21 plantings held during this year. My gratitude also goes to the members of my Trees Committee who have given up their spare time voluntarily to promote our programme and get muddy tree planting. To mark the planting of our 10,000th tree a special planting event was held in Chinn Brook Meadows in the Billesley Ward of Councillor Len Gregory and his wife, who attended officially as the Lord and Lady Mayoress of Birmingham. We are grateful for their enthusiastic support, involvement and interest in the organisation throughout their year in office and hope this connection will continue in the future; Cllr Gregory was influential in the setting up of BTFL.

  • Investigating the Role of Social Media and Smart Device Applications in Understanding Human-Environment Relationships in Urban Green Spaces
    INVESTIGATING THE ROLE OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND SMART DEVICE APPLICATIONS IN UNDERSTANDING HUMAN-ENVIRONMENT RELATIONSHIPS IN URBAN GREEN SPACES by HELEN VICTORIA ROBERTS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences College of Life and Environmental Sciences University of Birmingham February 2018 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract Urban green spaces are integral components of urban landscapes and the cultural ecosystem services afforded to human populations by these green spaces are of particular relevance to human and societal well-being. Urban green spaces provide opportunities for human interaction, physical activity and recreation, stress alleviation and mental restoration, economic opportunity, cultural activities and interactions with nature. To understand how these benefits are received by human populations it is vital to understand when and how individuals interact with urban green spaces. The rapid development and uptake of technologies such as smart phones, social networks and apps provides new opportunity to investigate the human interactions occurring in urban green spaces. Using the city of Birmingham as a case study, this thesis aims (i) to demonstrate the utility of data obtained from smart device enabled platforms (social networks and apps) in understanding socio- ecological interactions in urban areas and (ii) to evaluate the utility of these data sources for researchers and policy makers.

  • Annual Review 2016 / 2017
    Annual Report 2017 25/9/17 08:38 Page 1 The Birmingham Civic Society Annual Review 2016 / 2017 Annual Report 2017 25/9/17 08:38 Page 2 Message from Geoff Cole Chairman, Birmingham Trees for Life In a year which another significant milestone was reached – that of planting our 60,000th tree in Birmingham – we were also met with the sad loss of one of BTFL’s founders, Councillor Ray Hassall, former Lord Mayor of Birmingham. Cllr. Hassall was instrumental in the setting up of BTFL in 2006. Having worked with him for many years, I would like to pay a personal tribute to Ray, which you will find on page 3. BTFL’s collaboration with the Woodland Trust was officially ‘launched’ by the Lord Mayor, Councillor Carl Rice, at a wonderful tree planting event at Cofton Park in March. We are delighted to be partnered with the Woodland Trust as they start to work more in urban areas, and look forward to our relationship developing over the coming years. We once again enjoyed the support of staff from Deutsche Bank Birmingham; this season, they asked us to involve a different group of young people in the events they supported, so we invited disadvantaged young people being helped by Platinum Housing Care to join us at the three Deutsche Bank sponsored events. Our active programme of school and community involvement continues, with 476 schoolchildren from 21 schools and a college involved in tree planting in the 2016-17 season, as well as 19 other children at Saturday events. A number of Friends groups joined us on site, and at Acocks Green Recreation Ground, the local Scout Troop were also very enthusiastic participants.
