A run down and overgrown medieval churchyard in Sandwich has been restored to a beautiful wildlife haven by a group of local volunteers. In this amazing story, you'll hear from the people who brought this churchyard back to life and find out what they discovered when they peeled the ivy back from the tombstones.

It takes a community of passionate people to make a difference and you can really tell that has happened here in Sandwich. With a bit of organising and hard work, each person has found a role, whether that be to document the history of the place and the people buried here or clearing overgrown vegetation, they all work so hard to make this place a special site for anyone who wants to visit.
