Brighter Breightmet exists to bring local people together to work on specific environmental projects, sharing skill and resources, building relationships and achieving what can’t be done alone.

We began in June 2016 working on St James’ Church Yard, improving access and making the site safe as well as taking measures to enrich the wildlife. We are a small group and meet every Monday from 10am – 1pm at St James’ Church Yard, Roscow Avenue, Bolton, BL2 6HU.

New members always welcome, no experience necessary – tools provided. We used to provide refreshments too, but since covid hit we’re asking people to bring their own such as a flask, drink or snack if you like.
