SUMMARY:Conservation Task
DESCRIPTION:Organiser: Adrian Palmer \n\n\n\nMeeting Point:   MEG bridge. \n\n\n\nTask:    \n\n\n\nThe March task session is almost upon us although unfortunately we have to change the day as Graham’s Parish Council team are not now available on the planned date. We have agreed that the revised date will be Thursday 14th March\, meeting at around 10 am by the MEG bridge. \n\n\n\nAt our last session the three Davids\, Ian and myself cut back a large area of invasive rhododendron in the Upper Pleasure Grounds. Many thanks again guys. As a lighter task next Thursday\, there are still four or five much smaller rhododendrons that can be cut back in the Lower Pleasure grounds before they become too established. If there are one or two volunteers who are willing to take on this task\, please let me know and we can make separate arrangements to meet. \n\n\n\nThe main task with the PC will be\, weather permitting\, to pick up the drainage maintenance and footpath repair task that was originally scheduled for February\, particularly the area where the overtopping\, which is fed by an active spring\, has scoured the footpath. \n\n\n\nProtective gloves are essential\, along with fluids to drink and wellies remain the most appropriate footwear. It is always good to see new and regular faces on our task sessions so I hope that some of you will be able to join next week. \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

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
