Newport Horizon

I have often thought what a shame it is that the town does not really promote it's best natural feature - the river

Better access to the landscape in which Newport sits would provide a different perspective whether it is cycling in and out of Shide, walking up St Georges Down or along the Lukely valley or dog walking in Parkhurst

Would like to see consideration for biodiversity - for wildlife, in amenity planting palettes, more imaginative maintenance regimes that allow and encourage planting and wildlife rather than amenity grass etc.

Bring the countryside into the town so it is part of our everyday experience the most nature seen is seagulls support a patchwork of attractive viable natural spaces no matter how tiny

More seating needed in the parks, especially Litten.

I walk through Seaclose and Medina

Arboretum most days

Don't take away any more of our green space

Having beautiful outdoor spaces, contact with nature would be a huge benefit to Newport, more enjoyable for visitors, holidaymakers, workers and better for older people and those less able

We need some good natural space with seating, not enough nature development per se

More green, even in small ways

I like the flower displays by local businesses maybe more seating, often ruined by traffic

Green/Open space is severely limited

It would be nice to have more natural spaces where people could feel they have opportunities to have contact with nature. Create a pleasant green space along the river

There is some great environmental work happening at Coppins Community Church. More natural plants, such as bee and butterfly friendly…..with signage for people to identify the animals

It is there if you know where to look

Make more of the river.

Very little option for green space or pleasant outdoor seating.

More parks and gardens as more kids live in newport and want to get out there aren't really any spaces to play or to be in contact with nature
