It’s that time of the year again – when George Green of WWT leads weekend work parties in Oakley Wood, allowing volunteers to assist with a variety of tasks. It’s a great way to feel you are contributing to the health of the wood, and it’s good for your health too.

This is George’s schedule with currently planned activities.

Please contact George () if you want to participate. This is to give him an idea of how many will attend, and for first timers, sort out any necessary admin (this is a prerequisite if you’ve not attended before, otherwise you will not be allowed to participate). General information about volunteering is the same as provided in this earlier post. Tea and biscuits at elevenses are no longer provided (boo!) so if you need half-time refreshments, bring your own.

Unless otherwise mentioned, we meet at the loading bay, off the B4100 Banbury Road at 10.00. George asks you not to arrive early as you risk backing up onto the busy road. He aims to arrive for around 09:50 to open the double gates. Activities normally run until around 13.00 but there’s no problem if you need to leave earlier.

I’ll try to post a reminder for each activity a little while before it takes place.
