WORKING TOGETHER
We started out as Sacred Grove South West,a Devon & Cornwall based group of environmental advocates, many of whom were druids, pagans and those who followed nature based belief paths.
We have grown rapidly into an eclectic UK-wide network.
Anyone who wishes to highlight and voluntarily work with others
promoting the various issues of interest to the friends of SGWI
can freely access SGWI facillitys.
Anonymity is an option if you
prefer.

WHAT is SGWI?
Its a voluntary run and independent, UK based networking hub
that is focused around 3 main root subjects-
Environmental & Ecological issues.
Ancient and Sacred Sites.
Health and Wellbeing.
Via this site we hope to assist the many
Groups and Individuals
who champion the various issues seemingly alone.

You can access Guidance from Environmental & Ecological advocates
who are widely experienced in research, planning and management.
This includes local and national groups with experts and professionals who can assist you.
You can
also find guidance on environmental and conservation policy in practice
and "how to" access appropriate legal and governmental information.
Very useful for those challenging planning applications that threaten local
habitats with pollution and other concerns you may have.
