URBAN BIODIVERSITY
Urban Biodiversity is a multi award winning Community Interest Company based in Cornwall that aims to reduce social deprivation by developing urban sites into places that offer environmental growth, community benefit and a fair chance for all.
Newquay Orchard is an award-winning multifunctional community space designed to improve people’s perception on the environment; provide education; mental health therapy; food security; community events; and develop environmentally sustainable economic growth. The Orchard is set in 7-acres of land in the heart of Newquay and is currently under construction to provide wildlife areas, woodland, community growing space, amphitheatres, and a community building and café.
We want a society that is environmentally conscious, a sustainable community that works for each other and to put an end to social deprivation giving a fair chance in life for all. Our activities empower local communities with the skills and opportunities to improve their surroundings for the betterment of their health and wellbeing, and for the betterment of their natural environment.
