Two grants have recently been given 
to the Kingswood Trust continuing our support for a local organisation that gives children a stimulating environment in which to develop and learn.
A grant of £3,880 was given to fund the Trust’s “Hoot” project. This is an educational development for young people focussing on the creation of an environment for owls and small mammals where they can prosper and be studied. The funding will assist with the purchase of night vision binoculars, owls and mammal books and session costs for groups of children.
The second grant for £602.50 comes from funds raised by a Club member and will go towards replacing equipment in order to ensure a full range of environmental activities can be undertaken. 
Kingswood is a long-standing education facility which became an independent trust in 2014. It provides outdoor education activities for learning with nature set in nine acres of natural environments, wildlife and resident animals. It connects children and the community to the natural world.
