Woolton Village Resident's Association (WVRA)

Our Association is always working towards achieving a cleaner, safer and a more colourful village to live and work in and has done so since its formation in Our primary aim is to represent the interests of the residents of Woolton Village and the many people who support us in that effort. Since 2000 we have helped regenerate Woolton Woods & Camp Hill together with the Quarry Street playground. We, have over the last three to four years, planted over one thousand oak, beech, and other species of tree and shrub in our woods in order to regenerate our mature woodlands. We have planted over 1000 bluebells and sown over 1800 sq. metres of wild flower seeds along the woodland edge of Hillfoot Road and High Street Borders in order to create an insect habitat and sustain many species of wild bird and small mammals. We can also, now see the results of being involved in the “Britain in Bloom” contest that had been promoted by the City Council and the Woolton in Bloom Committee. Arising out of our work and contacts with various community forums, including The Mersey Forest and offices within the City Council we are able to influence decisions regarding the environment in the village. Our latest green project was to create Liverpool Bumblebee Haven Project in Woolton Wood, funded by an £18,000 grant from Veolia Environmental Trust.
