History of the Green
The project to create 250 Millennium Greens across the turn of the Millennium (2000/2001) was started in 1996 [1] and ended when the last Green was handed over to its own, local charitable trust in perpetuity. Each trust now fundraises for and runs its own green, within the bounds of its trust deed, for the benefit of its local community. Our Millennium Green is run by Sholver Millennium Green Trust.
