Our overall aim is to open up 2 areas within Honley Old Woods as bio diverse community areas, managing the ponds and surrounding land on an ongoing basis. Activities to support these objectives include pond clearance and pond life surveying, pathway clearance, removal of invasive and to share with the community what can be found on their doorstep.
Location: Holme Valley (Holme Valley North, Holme Valley South)

The Friends of Cliff Rec was established to counter the negative publicity which the Rec was attracting at the time and to save the arched stone shelter from demolition. We aim to foster a sense of pride and ownership of the Rec in the local community. We also aim to preserve and enhance the natural and man-made environment of the Rec, working in partnership with its owners, Kirklees Council.
