Letting nature thrive: No Mow May across our communities

This May, we are delighted to once again take part in the No Mow May campaign – giving our green spaces a chance to flourish and providing a warm welcome to much-needed wildlife!

Since the 1930s, the UK has lost an incredible 97% of its flower-rich meadows. Every little effort helps to turn the tide.

By leaving some of our grass to grow longer and letting wildflowers take centre stage, we can support pollinators, tackle pollution, and help store more carbon in the soil.

It's a simple step, but it really does make a difference.

Throughout May, our Grounds Maintenance team will keep your neighbourhoods looking tidy while leaving around 25% of our usual mowed areas to grow wild.

We hope these vibrant patches of greenery and wildflowers will soon be buzzing with bees, butterflies, and birds – all bordered by neatly trimmed lawns.

We'd love for you to join in too! Even leaving a small section of your own lawn unmown can make a real impact.

With over 20 million gardens across the UK, these wild patches add up to something big for nature, our communities, and the planet.

And remember, you can support wildlife all year round by leaving a patch of your garden to grow a little wilder.
