Volunteer Days

​

The reserve is conserved and protected by local volunteers. We would not be able to manage without your help. Each month we host volunteer days to complete essential conservation tasks. 

​

Tasks vary seasonally, but these are some examples:

- Path widening. During the summer, pathways can become overgrown.
- Litter picking. The less litter there is the less likely people are to drop it!
- Invasive species removal. Sadly, there are some plants that are not welcome. We have to do our best to prevent them from overgrowing.
- Culvert clearing. Making sure the two streams leading to the pond don’t get blocked up.

- Coppicing. Managing the growth of the copse in the grasslands.

​

All are welcome, and equipment is provided. Simply show up! There are always a range of different tasks available to suit different levels of experience, comfort and ability.
