Cove Brook Greenway Group is run by and for local residents to enhance the brook and its environs, and increase local awareness of the brook. It was set up in 1996 with support from Rushmoor Borough Council, Hampshire Wildlife Trust and Hampshire County Council. Among other tasks, group work parties have planted hedges, cleared rubbish, carried out surveys, set up a nature reserve and constructed bat boxes.  Everyone who is interested in the brook is welcome. The group can also provide equipment, learning materials and ideas for teachers and groups such as Cubs and Brownies.
