Getting things done – Annfield Row #dundeewestend

We recently have had complaints about the extent of dumping in the council-owned empty site at Annfield Row.


We contacted the council’s property team and have been updated as follows :

“The Council has only recently regained possession of the site and we are presently investigating options to have the site cleared and made available for re-letting.”



Friends of Riverside Nature Park event – all welcome! #dundeewestend

Pollinators and Wildflowers event – this Sunday 17th July 1pm to 3pm


Come along to a guided outing at Riverside Nature Park and learn about the many insects we have which pollinate our wildflowers and crops.

Not just bees but butterflies, wasps, hoverflies, beetles etc – all play their part. We need them for our survival yet modern agriculture, greenspace management and climate change are causing massive declines.

The wildflower meadows at Riverside help maintain a rich diversity of flowers and pollinators.

Come along, all ages welcome, children with appropriate supervision.

Bring magnifying glasses and cameras if you have them.

Meet at car park in Wright Avenue.
