Boundary Brook Nature Park work party

Boundary Brook Nature Park was created in 1990 when a group of community wildlife enthusiasts rescued a plot of disused allotments to carve out a wild space in the heart of East Oxford.
Featuring mixed woodland, meadow, a nature pond and butterfly glade, Boundary Brook is home to a rich variety of wildlife from birds and butterflies to frogs and foxes.
Oxford Urban Wildlife Group have asked for our help to with a mixture of tasks as they start reopening the site, including seeding grassland and building paths.
Please bring your own gardening gloves. Tools and litter pickers will be provided.
The task meeting point is outside the gate to Boundary Brook Nature Park, which is on the cycle way just past Larkrise Primary School at the end of Boundary Brook Road.

Field Session LUNCHTIME (Introduction to running with Trev)

I have been a run leader for about 6 years now, with LiRF training and much experience leading Rose Hill Runners and covering for Anwen at GoodGym for 6 months. I am also a multiple marathon and ultra marathon runner as well as loving slow jogs to chat.
This session is aimed to get people back into regular running!
Meet behind the Rose Hill Community Centre on the field
We will then move to a good space of field where there aren't people and roughly do a session with :
Warm ups
Drills
A gentle running session as a whole group - we can do interval running faster then slower, or set a pace that feels right depending who is there - cool down
This is open to all abilities but aimed at people who can already jog for 30mins or more and run about 5k, more experienced runners welcome too

Rivermead, Rose Hill Sunday afternoon Litter Pick

There is a lot of rubbish under the ring road bridge in Rivermead Rose Hill, this will take a good few trips and a bit of energy to bag up and lug up to a point the council can collect it.
Also the nature reserve both before and after the Bridge have quite a lot of litter which is bad for any wildlife and looks a bit horrible too
We will provide bin bags and litter pickers Please do bring your own gloves

10-a-penny Hot Cross Buns
Bank Holiday weekends are always a bit bonkers at the Oxford Mutual Aid food bank. After a busy and confusing Saturday shift last week we were crossing our fingers that today might be calmer, and it was...but only a little!
The produce was stacked high all over the hall and kitchen as there won't be any more food restocks until Tuesday, so there needed to be enough in to meet demand until then. The OMA whatsapp had been pinging away all morning, so we had an inkling that we were going to need to switch from a cleaning shift to a parcel packing team, and indeed that was the case. The morning team had been rushed off their feet preparing food parcels, and we took over with a dozen still to do. Unfazed, we set to work packing, adding a generous scatter of Easter eggs and hot cross buns as treats.
After an hour all the parcels were packed so Katie and Trev switched to restocking the shelves with tins, pasta, porridge and sauces, and Zoe tackled the bread and butter mountains in the kitchen. We counted 15 crates of bread, 4 sacks of pastries, and too much Utterly Butterly to keep a tally. Oxford residents will be carb-loading this weekend for sure!
No time for cleaning this week, but by the time we left everything was in fridges that needed to be, the hall shelves were replenished, food parcels were ready for the van, and the bins emptied.
