Name: Alaina Harrison
Age: 18
Year of the Fix: 2015
Location: Esh Winning, County Durham
Campaign: To stop the spread of Himalayan Balsam

I love the countryside and seeing all the different plants and trees.

 

Unfortunately, some of these beautiful places are being ruined by Himalayan Balsam, a weed which is destroying the local environment.

 

They can grow up to three metres tall and cause all the smaller plants underneath to die off because they're deprived of sunlight.

With Fixers, I want to educate people about this issue.

Together, I hope that we can help to control the spread of this problem plant.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this Fix:

Alicia Bartle Bailey Hendrickson
Bethany Wright Craig Cummins
Daniel Robson David Laing
Jack Rispin

Freya Lamacav-Wigham
James Thompson Luke Thompson
Robert Miller Ruby Anne Anderson
Shannon Wood Tom Charman

Tees Rivers Trust

John Musham from the Trust supports my Fix. He was interviewed to appear in my television item.

Cestria Primary School
The team at the school support my Fixers project. Their pupils featured in my broadcast item.

East Durham College

Chris Francis supports my project. He helped by providing students for a focus group.

 

Colin Churcher, Marie Finch, Peter Collins and Philippa Pearson also supported my Fix. They took part in the focus group.
