Middlesbrough Council, the Environment Agency and the Tees Valley Wildlife Trust have joined forces to launch the 3-year Boro Becks Project. Funding has been awarded by the Big Lottery as part of the Access to Nature grants programme administered by Natural England. The Boro Becks project is all about getting people involved in the becks through events and activities, training, practical task days
and environmental and access improvements. The four becks covered by the project are Marton West Beck, Middle Beck, Ormesby Beck and Spencerbeck. The team was based at Stewart Park and comprised: Barry Jobson, the Becks Ranger; Christine Corbett; the Community Outreach Officer and Sammy Brown, the Project Coordinator. The funding and project finished in December 2013
Boro Becks page is now managed by volunteers.
