Northwich Woodlands................................. and it's fantastic volunteers

I have just discovered this short video clip on You Tube.
This is my local patch and the people that look after it..... they all really care.

 
Dave James is the guy who replied to my e-mail recently about the drought at Haydn's Pool.
The clip of the Sand Martin bank and hide were taken at Haydn's.
His reply to my e-mail was very positive.
 I now intend to join the Friends of Anderton and Marbury (FOAM) after viewing the work they do.
I work full time so my support may be limited... fund raising maybe?

Great video Andrew! Volunteering means so to our community spirit and quality of life. I'm with you, when my work days diminish I plan on contributing more than just financially to a worthy group such as this! Splendid!

Interesting video. Without volunteers many of the local environmental jobs wouldn't get done.

Thank you for your visit my site :)
A sense of community is a wonderful thing even you can participate in it only now and then.
Nice autumn days to you!

Andrew, an excellent video.

What would all our 'special' places be like without the help of all the marvellous volunteers?...[;o)

Good to hear that the wood from the park is used for so many wonderful things, including firewood. Would be a shame to let that wonderful wood rot. Although rotten wood is great for the trees if left in the bush.
