🧵1/4 This week sees the official end of the Chalk, Cherries & Chairs Landscape Partnership, our five-year initiative dedicated to the conservation, restoration, and celebration of the central Chilterns. 🪑🍒
🧵3/4 Legacy was written into the project from the start & there are many areas that will continue & be built upon over the years to come – like the central Chilterns Farmer Cluster, New Shoots, Tracking the Impact & the Makers' Hub & Chair Network.
🧵4/4 We are so proud of what we have achieved. None of it would have been possible without the help of our supporters, funders & volunteers – to you, we say one big thank you!
