Yazor Brook

The Yazor Brook Restoration Project, led by Herefordshire Wildlife Trust's city branch, is working to recover and nurture the Yazor Brook as a blue-green corridor through Hereford. The brook provides a refuge for wildlife in the heart of the city and creates valuable natural spaces for us all to enjoy, but is also used as a repository for rubbish, industrial effluent, toxic surface water from roads and even raw sewage.

Volunteers are helping to clean up, protect and improve the brook and its surroundings. In turn this will help reduce flooding and support more wildlife. You can get involved here.

Richard and Marion Campbell who runs the Apple Store Gallery worked with a group of artists and poets in partnership with the City Branch for a year, leading to exhibitions and public events in the summer of 2023 to raise awareness of the restoration work.
