Weekly udpate, 19th December


First off, a huge thank you to all who came along on Friday and enjoyed the festive cheer at the Volunteer Christmas Party! It was wonderful to see so many of you join in the celebrations. It really has been a truly spectacular year for volunteering at Earth Trust with around 210 of you giving your time which I think is rather astonishing! I've said it before and I'll say it again, so much of what happens at Earth Trust simply could not be achieved without our volunteers so a big thank you and here's to an even bigger 2018.

All that is left for me to say is have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Enjoy Doctor Who (I know I will...!) and I'll see you in 2018! The office re-opens on Tuesday 2nd January.

What the volunteers have been up to:

Thursday Group (Abingdon), 14th December

The group were back at Abbey Fishponds last week to finish off the task of laying woodchip on the footpaths - an important job at this time of year. The next session (the last of the year) is on 21st December.

Friday Group (Little Wittenham), 15th December

Another staple of the winter work programme - the team were back coppicing in Paradise Wood for last week's session. It was the last session of the year as this Friday we're shutting up shop early for the festive period! The next Friday Group will be on 5th January.
