Last minute opportunity and change to June date

15/5/2022

Hi All,
Appreciate it is very last minute, but Paul and Andy will be continuing one of today's tasks by the bridge over the A31 tomorrow (Mon 16th May) from 09:30. 
We will be working on bracing the broken fence, which involves climbing over the fence to start with. 
It is a long time since I have done any fence work and we will be working it out as we go along as what we have planned is not a standard method. 
That said, if you want to come along and puzzle over it with us, please do!  
All tools and gloves supplied (or bring your own gloves if you prefer). Hot and cold drinks and biscuits also provided. 
If fence climbing is not your thing, but you still want to come along, there is some cutting back of overhanging vegetation along the bridleway..... or just come along, say hi and marvel at the work done on the bridleway surface today. 

Anyone who has not already done so will also need to provide their contact details and those of an emergency contact.  This is for our insurance and your welfare.

Change of Date for June work party
Unfortunately I have managed to triple book myself on Sun 12th June, so we will be moving that task day to Wednesday 15th June.
I can also confirm that we will be having our AGM at Highmead Farm on the same day at 7.30pm.
Apologies for the change, why not go and support Wimborne Folk festival on the 12th instead.

Dates for your diary (They may occasionally change and I will add more where possible)

Dear Friends,
After too long a break, we are back in Cannon Hill South with a couple of chunky tasks to complete as well as plenty of less chunky ones...... So something for everyone :-)
The main tasks include repairing the fence by the bridge and repairing and extending the gravel section of path where it gets particularly muddy on the bridleway. 
There are also benches to paint, encroaching vegetation to cut back along the paths and for those that prefer a gentle stroll, bird boxes to visually survey (from a safe non disturbing distance).

All tools and gloves supplied (or bring your own gloves if you prefer). Hot and cold drinks and biscuits also provided.  Please bring a packed lunch if staying all day.
We will be on site from 9am until about 2.30pm. We will base ourselves in the glade picnic area.
For those that have not been before, it is the woodland south of the A31 up Uddens drive, past the Old Thatch and Uddens Trading Estate.  
Follow the bridleway up the side of the field from the first parking area or cut accross from the 2nd one, you can't miss us.

Any under 16s, please bring an adult (we can keep them supplied with tea and biscuits...or they can join in ).  If you are doing your DoE volunteering scheme, this counts towards it and we can fill in the relevant assessment paperwork for you.

Anyone who has not already done so will also need to provide their contact details and those of an emergency contact. 

As always, come along when you are able for as long as wish (occasionally we finish earlier than listed).
Knowing rough numbers in advance is useful, so if possible reply to his email or drop me a message.
