Fox Hollies Environmental Centre, where for many years it has served as a place to visit and learn about animals. The volunteers are all dedicated to the care and wellbeing of the animals and often pay for thing out of their own pockets. It had improvements made to it with money from Veolia trust but has since been allowed to deteriorate, it'll be a sad day when it closes on the 31st March 2018. This will leave the volunteers some with disabilities with no where to go and nothing to do.
Help us save the Centre, or maybe start a fresh somewhere in Acocks Green.

A good friend of my partners works at fox hollies animal centre and he will loss his job
I used to do my volunteering here every weekend I loved going to look after the animals and to help out! There are some wonderful people there too!
Have enjoyed many happy hours here, a little bit of country in a city which is rare and very special. Should be preserved.
This is a one of a kind urban farm that serves children, the alterly and disabled. This should remain open for the pleasure of those who need it.
This is a wonderful place for children to go and learn about animals and birds and plants as well. The staff in the environmental centre are friendly and knowledgeable. It would be a sad loss to the local community if it were to close permanently.
If this place closes, which it looks like it will, it'll be a very sad day for the animals and all the volunteers past and present. I wish them luck if they go ahead and open somewhere else. You have my full support.
This has been here for years even when I was little and our children now go there with the school please don't close it

We need more of this type of centre, not less. It fulfils an educational need for inner city children, and opportunities for further education and life/work experience for older students, as well as a constructive outlet for their abilities and interests. Surely the centre can re-open, in a different location if necessary, and continue its important community function. Thank you
