Weekly update, 12th December


Hope you're all wrapped up warm and toasty! Thursday and Friday Groups are all systems go this week and with the temperature creeping over to a toasty 'above freezing' layers will as always be a good shout! Many hands have been making fantastic progress on the nature reserves over the last few weeks - we couldn't do it without you.

Looking forward to seeing you later in the week for some festive cheer at the volunteer Christmas party!

Have a splendid week,
Hannah
Volunteering Development Manager

The Sunday group were also coppicing hazel in the walnut trial plot of Paradise Wood this month, ensuring the walnut trees have room to grow. The next session is 14th January.
