To support the Campaign, join LCPRE today
With its spectacular cathedral, gentle pace of life, and delightful riverside setting,
Ely is a special place to live. But its rapid growth has put increasing pressure
on the city’s remaining green spaces.
The quiet backwaters of Roswell Pits and the nearby wetlands and meadows along the
River Great Ouse are now the last
fragments of nature
around Ely.
But
development
now threatens irrevocable damage to the area, harming nature and people alike.
LCPRE
is campaigning to protect these vitally important areas and develop a
vision for their future before it’s too late.

Annual General Meeting
18 June Members are invited to LCPRE's AGM, at 7.30 on Wednesday 1
July 2009 at Ely Sailing Club. In addition to the formal
business of the evening, there will be a nature walk and wine and nibbles.
Garden Party
08 June Many thanks to all those who came along to the LCPRE Garden Party
on Sunday. Despite the unsettled weather there was a great turnout - and the rain
held out for much of the afternoon so that tea and cakes could be enjoyed outside
in the garden. All in all the event was a great success - thanks again to
everyone involved.
Ely Reed Day
Following Ely Reed Day on 25 April, if you would like more information on caring for
your reeds, click here.
