It has been another wet winter with the rain causing more damage to the pathways again. The summer maintenance program will allow us to improve the loweer path and treat the seats to protect them. The panels will be put in place so the site will be clearer for people visiting the area.

If you feel you would like to help to look after this Nature Reserve and learn conservation techniques at the same time then please ring Lee Hembrow on 01271-388326 for further information. We look forward to seeing you there every 3rd Sunday morning.
