Report written by Anastasia Hancock (she/her)
It was all about the wildlife in Chiswick tonight as we delivered information locally about hedgehogs underneath the beaver moon!
Wild Chiswick is an organisation which works to protect vulnerable animals in the area. There have been recent sightings of hedgehogs for the first time in years at Strand on the Green and Jo, who runs the project, wanted to make sure the population continues to grow. Our job for the night was to deliver information leaflets to houses in the area so they knew how to care for hedgehogs, improve their habitats and help them thrive!
We divided up into teams and, like the well oiled machine we are, started delivering the leaflets at impressive speed.
We were done before we knew it, so meeting back up with Jo, we posed for some photos under Justin Beaver. (thanks for the punspiration!)
Then it was back to the town hall for a short but sweet tabata session working our major muscle groups.
The good news? The task was very effective - Jo got an enquiry about creating a habitat before the evening was out! Amazing work.
We have a couple of weekend missions coming up. Fancy taking part in a huge bulb planting task at Chiswick House??
Or maybe some hedge care in Heston is up your street.
Either way you'll be kicking off the weekend doing something positive for your community and getting in a great work out!
