*PUBLIC INFORMATION SESSIONS HAVE NOW FINISHED*

Informaton sessions were held in May outlining the plans to improve the Ballymacarrett Walkway section of the Comber Greenway including landscaping, upgrading of paths and improved lighting.

Although these sessions have finished we are still keen to hear your views and listen to your feedback.

Take a trip along the Connswater Community Greenway and you will see a whole range of beautiful flowers and plants, but do you know what they are? A new book called ‘What’s Growing on the Greenway’ launched by EastSide Partnership and The Paul Hogarth Company celebrates the beautiful plants, people and places which make the Greenway a wonderful place to explore.

There's plenty of activties happening on the Greenway this Spring!

From weekly sessions of Green Yoga at Victoria Park with Yoga Quarter, Fayres and Foraging walks with experts; there's plenty of fun to be had for the whole family!

To avoid missing out and to find out more information check out the events on the Connswater Community Greenway Facebook page.

We are looking for participants in an exciting new heritage project funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Participants will have the chance to receive training in how to research people of interest from the past. We will use the information gathered to create a trail around east Belfast where visitors and locals alike can find out more about who used to live here and what their lives were like.

We are especially interested in helping research stories about ordinary people who represent a way of life that will soon be forgotten.
