Friends of Studham Common (FOSC) is a friendly informal voluntary group. Our aim is to conserve, maintain, improve and promote Studham Common as a haven for wildlife and a place to be enjoyed and appreciated by all.

We warmly welcome new members of all ages and support of all kinds.  Join us any time to help keep the Common beautiful for everyone.

How tidy do you want the Common?

Some local residents wonder whether Studham Common is “over-managed”.

On 27th October we celebrated our tenth birthday with a ‘Call My Bluff’ wine-tasting in the packed village hall.  The evening was masterminded by John McDougal who, with his co-bluffers Dave Meager and Isobel Randall, kept us intrigued and entertained.

 

Warmest thanks to all who joined in the fun and to the catering corps who put on a gourmet buffet.  And a special thank you is due to our MP Andrew Selous, who generously made time to join us at the start of the evening to express his appreciation of our hard work in maintaining the Common and preserving its wildlife.

What a tremendous day! Well done to the 47 people, from Studham and beyond, who turned out on a lovely bright day on Saturday 26th Jan for our major work party of the year. The result?  500 new hedgerow plants on Middle Common, 30 gorse plants along Byslips Rd and a lot of scrub cleared, including some scalloping of the Eastern boundary to make a better environment for wildlife. If you haven't seen the results, do go along to have a look. You will be impressed.   

Our sincere thanks to all who contributed, including, of course, those who kept us so well sustained with a hearty breakfast, a splendid lunch and a great tea to wrap up the day.
