Putting Ecology on the Carrington Moss map
Thank you to those who joined our first online AGM, we really did put Ecology on the Carrington Moss map, a huge thank you to our speakers for their very interesting presentations. 

You will find all the documents on our website - click on the picture to go directly to our Committee Reports page.

FOCM Blog - Putting Ecology on the Carrington Moss Map
We hope you at least scanned our Annual Report to get a feel for all the activities we’ve been carrying out on your behalf (including presenting to the Housing Minister, working with Landowners, the Local Authority, local specialist groups, civic societies, Save Greater Manchester Green Belt group and particularly with Carrington Parish Council). 
Launch of the FOCM 200 Club
As you are aware, we have to raise money to fund any legal or expert advice we need over the coming months.  With this in mind, we have set up our very own FOCM 200 Club. 

It is very simple to set up your subscription – click on the logo to go directly to the page on our website which has all the instructions. 

The cost is just £2 per month (if you pay for an annual subscription it is just £22 – so you get a free entry for one month). 

The draw will take place on 28th of each month. 

The prize money will be 45% of the membership fee taken that month, with 25% being the first prize, 15% being the second prize and 5% being the 3rd prize.
A Balanced Community Focused Transport Strategy
We have worked very closely with Carrington Parish Council to develop a Balanced, Community Focused, Transport Strategy for the area and will be hosting a number of online sessions in the coming weeks to present our proposal to you – please click on one of the buttons below to let us know which timeslot would suit you best.
I'd prefer a (Monday - Friday) daytime session
I'd prefer an evening session (Monday - Thursday)
I'd prefer a weekend session
We are still awaiting the details of Trafford’s planned consultation events about the roads but in the meantime, we have presented our proposal to them and hope that it will form one of the options to be considered.

We have also added information to our website to share our concerns about the roads and the responses we have received to date from Trafford.

And Finally
Click on the graphic above to go directly to the survey.

We have a new quick survey for you, it is very short and will literally take you two minutes to complete. 
We are asking our members to support our aim to promote the ecology, the habitats and the wildlife on Carrington Moss.  We’d like your help in selecting the species YOU think best represent Carrington Moss.
Click here if you need a reminder about what is out there
And here for endangered species found on the Moss
So please complete the survey to help us identify our:
  • BIG FIVE BIRDS
  • BIG FIVE MAMMALS
  • BIG FIVE FLORA
  • BIG FIVE INSECTS
We’ll be arranging more on-line meetings over the coming weeks and hope to be able to organise some face to face community events in the near future but, in the meantime, please do take the time to respond to our survey and forward our newsletter to your family, friends and neighbours.  We’d be delighted to add them to our list and it would be great if you can all join our FOCM 200 Club.

We'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continued support.

Best wishes and stay safe everyone
