    • 'Green Streets' Voxpox

      This is a short Voxpox made by residents and other interested individuals, as part of our successful bid to Groundwork Northwest's Great Estates Innovation fund.

The idea of the grant is to develop Redbicks as a 'Green Zone', and we will be building on much of the innovation that has taken place within this wonderful place over the last 10 years.
