Tackling Invasive Species in Derry & Strabane’s Green Spaces
We’re excited to be working with Derry City and Strabane District Council on a major project to help protect and restore some of Northern Ireland’s most valued green spaces.
Invasive species like Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam are quietly reshaping our landscapes - pushing out native plants, damaging habitats, and threatening biodiversity. Axion Solutions has been commissioned to carry out a district-wide survey of parks, greenways, and open spaces, identifying where these species are taking hold and helping the Council build a clear plan for action.
This project is a vital step in safeguarding local nature and ensuring these outdoor spaces remain vibrant, accessible, and resilient for years to come.
