This week has been National Volunteer Week – an annual celebration of the
fantastic contribution millions of volunteers make across the UK, which leaves
us thinking where we would be without our team… more than likely sinking under
an ever increasing backlog of jobs! Over the last few weeks our small, but
fantastic group of volunteers, have been busy helping us undertake a number of
tasks on the reserve and surrounding area, from weed wiping, spraying, nest box
making, extracting and processing timber, surveying, fencing, trimming paths,
painting hides, goose gathering, litter picking, gardening, helping with
corporate work days/events and finally ragwort pulling. We honestly couldn’t
have got it all done without the extra help, so a big thank you to our team for
giving up their time and getting stuck in to whatever task they face, and
always arriving with a smile – even in the winter when it’s freezing cold,
raining and blowing a gale! If any of the above appeals and you fancy doing
your bit for the environment (whilst also making new friends and helping your
own health and well-being), then please feel free to get in touch.
