Ecosystems - High Elms case study

High Elms Country Park is a mix of woodland, wildflower meadows, nature conservation and gardens. It can be found in Farnborough, 15 miles away from central London. It is on the greenbelt.

It is home to BEECHE (Bromley Environmental Education Centre at High Elms), which is a sustainable education and visitor centre. It puts on talks and activities for school and teaches children how to look after the environment and the woodland.

It is a SSSI and a local Nature Reserve, enjoying the support of local environmental groups as well as the friends of High Elms, Nature England and the Forestry Commission.

There are chalk meadows and woodlands that support a variety of wildlife including species that are rare in London.
