Event Details

The Friends of The Lake District (FLD) and The Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority hope to develop a landscape partnership project with local people and centred on the Orton Fells, including Asby Parish, which become part of the National Park from August 1st.

  • Interested in local archaeology history and culture?
  • Interested in helping to look after local wildlife sites?
  • Are you involved with a local community group or school?
  • Would you like to do some volunteering or learn a new skill?

To help develop ideas, they are very keen to hear people’s thoughts about the area, possible projects and what people would like to see happen over the coming years.

All are invited to a drop-in event to be held in Great Asby Village Hall.   National Park and Friend’s staff will be present to chat and answer your questions about The National Park and the proposed project.

ATG Activities

We will be working with local landowners to identify small areas of land that can be used to plant trees or hedges. Occasional requests will go out to members, seeking volunteers to survey areas of land to assess the age and health of trees and to identify possible planting areas, as well as to take part in planting trees and hedges. These activities will normally be scheduled to last for no more than three hours.

The Tree Group has insurance to cover members carrying out these activities.

COVID Policy (Feb.2022)

Unfortunately Covid-19 has not gone away, and we still want everyone to feel safe whilst being able to enjoy the film.

  • We use ‘cabaret-style’ seating around suitably spaced tables.
  • We recommend that you continue to wear a face covering when moving around the village hall, though this may be removed whilst you are seated.
  • It would also be appreciated if you could complete an antigen (lateral flow) test before attending.  (We are more than happy to refund your ticket should your test unfortunately prove positive.)
