BVT Responsibilities

We are dedicated to keeping the communities and estates that we manage looking their best all year round.

To do this our Landscape Service, Bournville Village Landscapes (BVL), work hard to maintain and protect the environment that you live in.

Their efforts have been recognised by Keep Britain Tidy, which awarded Bournville’s Village Green its Green Flag status.

Services that BVL provide include:

• Grass cutting
• Hedge trimming
• Shrub bed pruning and maintenance
• Weed spraying
• Tree work
• Emptying litter bins and litter picking
• Leaf clearing.

This service is funded through the community / stewardship / management charge that you pay and is part of our estate stewardship services.
