This weekend… WORKING GROUP SATURDAY 2nd MARCH

For all those who are fit, able and willing, let’s keep Hampton Heath Friends moving into Spring!

This week (depending on numbers) we can look at:

• Grassland mosaic cutting: We’re really close to achieving our goal to cut, rake and remove 50% of our precious “Lowland Acid Grassland” (LAG) habitat.

• Bramble Reduction: Continuing to open up visibility along the Tennis Court Path towards David Lloyd.

• Litter-picking: As always!

• Practice Range Pond - Grassland: Strimming, rake and remove the grassland we reclaimed from the mowers behind the Practice Range Pond. Those who were working around the pond last year will know where I mean… but this area needs care/ consideration -  to get to/from this area means passing the practice range which is likely to be in use.  

WHEN: From 10am SATURDAY 2nd MARCH until around midday. Over to David Lloyd for free tea/coffee at around 12.

WHERE: Meet at the goal post, rear of David Lloyd as usual.  Map

WHO: Anyone and everyone is welcome. As always, please bring your own protective gloves, sensible footwear, drinking water etc. and under 18s must be accompanied.

WHAT: We can provide litter-pickers/bags, hedge trimmer, strimmer, rakes and brush cutter as always, BUT I currently have no way to get these to and from site. Any offers? If you have your own secateurs, rake, strimmer or hedge-trimmer (battery), please do bring them along.
