This is a small work party for helping with critical jobs across the reserves. Meet with Reserves Officer Adam Toulson-Hampshire, we will be beginning this season's coppice rotation, starting with an assessment of necessary tooling and discussion of this year's approach to the work before going out to site. Bring a packed lunch, plenty of water and wear sturdy footwear.  Looking forward to meeting you!
