Well done to Agnija for completing a solo task at the Slough Outreach shop this morning. Agnie helped to price up items and get those trainers looking brand new!

Well done to Pam and Adam for another parkrun good deed.

A very active session today. We were back in the reed bed area with Mick giving a dam about improving the dam built last time and digging more channels.

Meanwhile Sheila and Jen joined a group clearing more of the reed bed, trees and brambles back. Lots of lopping, sawing and chopping. We cleared a good area by the end of the session.

Nearly had a disaster! Couldn't get the container open so couldn't get out all the parkrun set up kit!

Started to work on plan B when super Laila which sheer brute force got the lock open!

phew!

Four volunteers met on a sunny January morning and litter picked the car park before walking to Eton and back, A relaxing coffee was enjoyed in Eton before the return trip

Mick and Sheila joined six other volunteers at Haymill Nature Reserve to continue work on the reed bed. Mick was in the group building a partial dam across the stream to help divert the water through the reed bed. It was amazing to see the instant effect of their labours as the water began to flow down the channel. Mick then got a good workout digging to extend the channel. Meanwhile Sheila joined others in clearing scrub along the reed bed edge, contending with brambles, wild clematis and dogwood to stop them invading this precious space
