SUMMARY:Conservation Task
DESCRIPTION:This task has been postponed from 22nd February and will now solely focus on rhododendron removal with other works planned with the Parish Council pushed back to March\n\n\n\nOrganiser: Adrian Palmer \n\n\n\nMeeting Point:  MEG bridge \n\n\n\nTask:    We are in the last month that we can undertake any significant cutting back/clearance and have identified isolated areas of invasive rhododendron in the Pleasure Grounds that it would be good to cut back/remove in line with the woodland management plan. We will not be able to tackle all of the areas identified this week\, but we can return to this task at the end of the summer. In addition\, there are a number of locations of surface water run-off over paths that either need maintenance of pipes or pipes installed to divert the flow. One particular location is near the MEG bridge where the flow across the footpath is fed by a spring and this is the first location that we will tackle. Therefore a mix of tasks available for volunteers who are able to participate. \n\n\n\nPlease bring protective gloves and fluids. For this session I would recommend wellington boots as the most appropriate footwear. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery effort will be made to keep to this date\, but changes can occur due to weather\, logistics\, to suit other involved parties or to avoid conflicting events. Generally an email will be sent to volunteers a week in advance with location and details of the task. It is possible that additional sessions will be added \, including at weekends if there is time critical\, or backlog of tasks to complete. \n\n\n\nIf you would like to join the list please fill in our contact form. \n\n\n\nTasks are generally planned with the parish council\, and wherever possible have a conservation theme. Most tasks are conservation management or maintenance and vary from lighter clearance work e.g. footpaths\, bramble\, rhododendron and hazel coppice\, to heavier work like drainage\, revetment or footpaths. Occasionally we do get opportunities to enhance or even create habitat for flora and fauna.  \n\n\n\nVolunteers should wear gloves and sturdy footwear\, safety glasses and  long trousers recommended. Bring waterproofs\, sunscreen and insect repellent as appropriate and bring your own water/refreshments. \n\n\n	\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						\n	\n	\n\n						\n							Add to calendar						\n						\n	\n\n					\n					\n						\n															\n									\n										Google Calendar									\n								\n															\n									\n										iCalendar									\n								\n															\n									\n										Outlook 365									\n								\n															\n									\n										Outlook Live
