This fundraiser connects to the Susurrus music installation at the Eco Park, Porthtowan, September 2026.

Each time Susurrus is installed it aims to raise funds for a bee-specific project in that community.

At the Eco Park, the Community Roots team have chosen to ask Matt Sommerville (BeeKind Hives) to build and install one of his Freedom Hives. The hive will create a natural home for bees until fruit trees can establish, providing a focal point for educational visits and starting conversations about bee conservation.

You can read all about these special hives, and Matt’s work, at www.beekindhives.uk

You can read more about the work of the Community Roots project at www.communityroots.uk

£1250 will pay for Matt to build a bespoke hive for the Community Roots land over the winter, and install it in the Spring.

Every donation will go directly to the project, and donators will be kept informed of progress and invited to the Freedom Hive unveiling.

Thanks in advance for your contribution!
