We will be working about 100m up the path on the right hand side. \n\n\n\nThere will be a mix of tasks from light pruning to heavier removal of bramble. This will be our last opportunity to work in the scrub area until after the birds have nested as we do not want to cause any disturbance. Please remember to bring good gloves and some water. We will bring some tools but if you have your favourite secateurs etc you can bring your own tools. \n\n\n\nI think the morning should be dry but who knows. If it is raining at 9.30 then the tasking will be called off. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDetails of this event are sent to everyone on the volunteer task list.
