Nature rich, community building places like #RyebankFields have so much to offer in terms of the liveability of a #Modern City 💚

Places like Save Rose Hill Bessacarr🍃💚🍃 #NatureInMyBackyard and #RyebankFields show us 20 years of humans doing nothing can produce a whole lot of something. Can call it #EcosystemServices or #GreenInfrastructure or whatever, but it’s Nature and it doesn’t need much from us, except to get out of its way 💚

Consultation event coming this autumn. Planning application likely in early 2025.

This is amazing! We have Carder bees, I’ve never seen a nest but will look out for them.. 👀

#Cinnabar caterpillars descend down the plant to pupate in the soil ready to hatch in the spring into beautiful pinky red and charcoal grey moths. Heartbreaking to think they might not get the chance if #MMU #manmetuni get their way 💔 #lepidoptera sussexwildlifetrust.org.uk/news/cinnabar-…

Too much construction in the City Centre is built for speculation by overseas investors, instead of for creating affordable places to make a home in 🏙️

Hoping we won’t need this for future reference but we do know drainage and need for attenuation is a big constraint for Ryebank Fields, probably relevant on SAVE DANES MOSS too we’d guess? We all have big beloved old trees 🌳

This is possibly the most convoluted greenwashing word salad we've heard to date from MMU. How about as an ecologist, prioritising real ecology over 'collaborating' with property developers in the #privatisation of #PublicLand? #ShameOnYouMMU link here tinyurl.com/26naf4s5

Get ready for winter ❄️

Next month. A public meeting. Also coming soon another exhibition style consultation by MMU's chosen developers said to be taking place early autumn with a possible planning application early next year.

Can’t wait to see this again, an essential watch for those engaged in a land struggle- like Horrible Histories for grown ups! We’ll be there with a stall alongside our friends at Right to Roam and Co-operation Manchester and others 🐮

More hypocrisy from the greenest university in the land.

No point responding to MMU pinned tweet asking why they plan to sell Ryebank Fields if they hide our replies. Boasting of their green credentials, ashamed of their destruction of a stellar city ecosystem, an inspiring oasis of verdant beauty. Hypocrites.
