COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

THE REWILD LIFE PROJECT CIC

Company Number: 14399376 (England and Wales)

Year Ending: 31 October 2024

Company activities and impact

The Rewild Life Project CIC was established to restore biodiversity, promote sustainable land use, and engage the local community in environmental conservation. In the financial year covered by this report, the project entered its start-up and development phase, focusing on transforming a four-acre plot of former grazing land on the outskirts of Shepton Mallet into a rewilded and productive community space. During this period, we initiated groundwork for the creation of a wildlife-friendly environment through a combination of native tree planting, hedgerow restoration, and regenerative growing practices. Specifically, we planted over 100 metres of native hedgerow and 40 native broadleaf trees, laying the foundation for a future food forest and biodiversity corridor that will support local pollinators, birds, and soil health. We also engaged members of the local community - particularly families and volunteers - in tree planting days and seasonal activities, promoting connection to nature and a sense of shared ownership of the land. Alongside our rewilding efforts, we have started growing small quantities of vegetables using no-dig methods, and have begun sharing surplus produce with local food banks. This initiative supports food access in our community. Although still in the early stages, The Rewild Life Project has already begun to make a positive impact by restoring habitat, building community involvement.

Consultation with stakeholders

Our stakeholders include local residents and families, volunteers, local food banks, environmental organisations, community groups. Additionally, neighbouring landowners and wider environmental networks are considered key stakeholders due to the ecological impact of our work. Consultation Methods: During this reporting period, we consulted with stakeholders through a variety of methods, including: 1. Community tree planting days, which allowed for direct feedback and engagement with local people. 2. Surveys and informal conversations with volunteers and community participants. 3. Engagement with environmental groups and strategic partners, including the Reimagining the Levels Project, the Somerset Rivers Authority, and CAG Somerset (Community Action Groups), who have provided guidance on community engagement, sustainability practices, and water conservation. Actions Taken in Response to Feedback: 4. We began offering practical learning opportunities such as no-dig growing, composting, and native tree planting workshops in response to community interest. 5. Following feedback on local food insecurity, we started donating surplus produce to food banks, contributing to improved food access. 6. Volunteer interest led us to develop seasonal volunteering and upskilling days, allowing deeper year-round involvement. 7. Consultations with the Somerset Rivers Authority, Reimagining the Levels, and CAG Somerset influenced our landscape design, particularly the introduction of swales to manage water runoff and prevent soil erosion, and the strategic planting of native trees and hedgerows to support biodiversity and climate resilience.
