Sat 29th January: Haldon Forest near Exeter 10.30 - 14.30.

Directions Turn off the A38 onto the road to Dunchideock. Meet in the car park of the Haldon Forest Hub (entrance at SX 884 849). Volunteers will be able to park without a charge, if you arrive in time to be issued with a parking permit. We will then drive to the site below the main powerline.

The task will be clearing scrub and young trees to open up an area used as a breeding site by pearl-bordered fritillaries. Bowsaws, loppers and secateurs will be the most useful tools.

ADVANCED BOOKING NECESSARY FOR ALL EVENTS
 
For winter events bring lunch, a drink, waterproof clothing, stout footwear/boots and gardening gloves. Bring recommended tools if possible though some are usually available on the day. If severe weather is forecast, check with the leader before travelling as an event could be cancelled.
