Rake and Chips

6 GoodGymers made their way to help the Braywick Nature Centre in Windsor and Maidenhead.

: Monday, 10th of May 2021
: Led by Tara Isherwood

Sutherland Grange is a designated Nature Reserve between Windsor and Maidenhead. Amy, Diya, Kanika, Amanda, Tara and Laura joined Jason from Braywick Nature Centre to spruce up the path leading to the West. We filled our wheel barrows with mulch and leveled it out on the path using large rakes, while Jason gave us some history of the site and successful steps in Woodland Management that are being undertaken to improve ecology and biodiversity. When our work was completed we headed home, Amanda had run and Diya, Kanika, Amy and Tara had a wonderful cycle back to Maidenhead via Bray and the Braywick Nature Reserve.

This week is Mental Health Awareness week, this year the focus is on our connection with nature. https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/campaigns/mental-health-awareness-week/why-nature.

Goodgym provides an opportunity for people to improve mental wellness by connecting more closely with nature in missions such as this.
