    Great initiative. Hopefully copied from John O'Groats all the way down to the borderlands.

    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    🙈 Luckily hibs don't own any land where supporters can park cars therefore can't dictate who drives and who doesn't.
    The roadworks on Leith Walk for the next 18 months however will do more than Hibs could ever do to stop folk driving

    Bee keeping would be interesting, "Hi-Bees Honey" can see the jars now

    Nice.

    Anyone know who to contact regarding this initiative? My wife works at a school in Leith and is keen to work in line with Hibs, or certainly collaborate with some of their ideas. Certainly bee keeping.

    Few things off the top of my head.

    Could the club add some cycle racks around the stadium for safe and secure parking.

    Are pizzas still sold on material which can’t be recycled ?

    I would still make the bins at ER more fun - large green bins and signage about please don’t drop litter (as this can blow into local streets and make the community more messy).

    LED lights are a decent shout too.

    East Mains definitely has potential for wind farm and bee hives / community allotments etc.

    Any other sensible suggestions ?

    That is in the plans, both at East Mains and Easter Road. Also Electric vehicles.

    Exactly, which is why Hibs are trying to do their bit to help change it, for the better.

    Presumably for staff / players?

    What would stop ECP somewhere outside the FF stand, thats not a closed car park?

    Plenty of land not being used.

    The club will announce plans soon about community work at East Mains so not sure it’s a massive surprise Hibs plan to do more there. Ok the bee and allotments was a bit far fetched !

    We should be selling the spare land to a house builder, there firing up house down east Lothian good style.
    Re-invest this in the training ground,keep the running costs low for a few years and more to spend on the park.

    I have not looked back, but I'm sure there are ground issues that would restrict that amount of building on the site. And the word is THEY'RE

    You have inside knowledge of this? How many cars do Hibs have? And BTW a single charging point can charge more than one car at the same time.

    FAO of FishyBeaver

    So should we do away with the community foundation too, seeing as we’re just a football club?

    Football clubs are so much more than on the football pitch. If you can’t see that there’s no hope for you.

    I wonder if they’ll do something with Lothian busses, eg match ticket gets you discounted travel to the game?

    I’m sure in Germany if you’ve got a match ticket public transport is free?
