It feels like spring has sprung over the last few weeks with activity from volunteers at fever pitch - will predicted snow over the next fortnight stop play?  We will see...

PLACE PLAN

Save the date!  We are having an event in the Wildside Centre on 15th March at 7.30pm.  Groups and individuals will be invited to give a couple of minutes on their successes over the last year and Nick Wright will present the draft of the Place Plan.  It will be lovely to get together, see you all and hear what you have been up to.

HOW MUCH WOOD WOULD A WOOD CHUCK CHUCK

We will be sending out invites for wood collection from today.  Over 80 people applied.  We will have to provide you with a time to collect the wood to avoid congestion.  Look out for a message in your inbox from today or Monday.
