We had a slow start to the first week of our new Green Gym with one brave volunteer who came along to help us carry out some woodland management in the Meadows, thanks Tam!
Due to the high winds that we have had in previous months there are thousands of trees blown over in the Meadows, all of which now pose a danger to visitors and a huge problem for the Ranger service.
We spent the day cutting up fallen trees so that they could be easily transported out of the woodland and not pose any more danger, and we did this whilst keeping well out of the way of Dallas, the ranger, as he tackled the bigger and hung up trees with the chainsaw!
Having been warned well in advance and quite vividly what could happen if we got in his way!
