Taunton Town Council has been awarded £20,000 for a wildflower recovery strategy funded by The National Lottery Awards for All Environment Fund, alongside £25,000 from the council's climate budget. The project will partner with conservation experts to create native wildflower corridors and pollinator-friendly displays.

Key initiatives include establishing wildflower corridors in parks, enhancing town centre floral displays, strengthening local ecosystems, aiding carbon capture, and reducing run-off during heavy rainfall. Engagement events will be announced for community involvement.
