Solihull Methodist Church
Church: Gold Award
A scheme called Eco-Church gives awards for a church’s commitment to environmental best practice.
The scheme is run by A Rocha which is a Christian charity working to protect and restore the natural world. It is committed to equipping Christians and churches in the UK to care for the environment.
Of about 25,000 churches in England and Wales 5,000 have an award but only 84 have the highest: Gold.
In April, Solihull Methodist Church became the 84th, and the first in Solihull. One new action you may notice passing by is areas of unmown grass, left to encourage insects and wild flowers for birds, butterflies and bees to feed on.
