Winter Wonderland

Firstly, Happy New Year and all the best for 2025. The lovely wintery scene below was taken at the weekend on Hinderclay Fen.

We ended last year with our annual winter walk on 29th December 2024. We were joined by about 50 people and their 4-legged companions for a stroll around the fens on a rather misty and murky morning but everyone thoroughly enjoyed it.

Last year we held our first Art Exhibition which was a great success and we will be holding one again this year. We are also in the planning stages of our first LOHP Plant and Craft Fair to be held on Sunday 13th April, more details will follow, but please get in touch with us if you are interested in being involved enquiries@lohp.org.uk

AGM Draws Crowds

We were joined by nearly 100 people on our 23rd AGM. The formal part of the AGM was followed by a short presentation by our Conservation Manager, Ellie Beach on what LOHP had been up to during the last year. We then had the annual talk this year by Adrian Ramsay, MP for Waveney Valley and Co-leader of the Green Party 'Supporting and scaling up landscape recovery', which prompted lots of interesting discussions.

After the talks nibbles were enjoyed along with a festive tipple. People were able to catch up with others, enjoy the Creative Fen Art exhibition and other local crafts and even have a go on the tombola.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the evening a great success, see you next year.
