Forth Meadow Community Greenway
Forth Meadow Community Greenway is a new £5.1million EU PEACE IV-funded project to connect existing open spaces in north and west Belfast along a 12km route from Clarendon Playing Fields to the new Transport Hub in the city centre.
Mediation Northern Ireland and Rubicon Consulting have spent the last 2 years exploring the history, culture and identity of the local areas through which the Greenway passes, and collecting and collating local stories for inclusion on a number of interpretative panels to be installed along the route.
As part of the project we worked with three local schools Springfield Primary, St Clare’s Primary and Springhill Primary to hear stories from the children and their families and capture these through paintings and drawings.
