Sunday 15th February - Not wanting their mid week comrades monopolising all the bad weather, today's team of volunteers enjoyed a good drenching as they continued to cut back bramble and snowberry on the edge if Roundshaw Downs.
Thursday 12th February 2026 - Apart from a couple of minutes of a downpour after lunch the band of volunteers had a pleasant day working in the Eastern half of Roundshaw Woods.
With a new batch of Tree whips in their mitts the team continued on with the work began last week, clearing back sprawling Bramble and a spot of Tree felling in select areas to counter the losses of the mature specimens in coming years.
Tuesday 10th February 2026 - The SNCV team were joined by four other entities to form one colossal supergroup for todays activities hailing from Revesby Woods.
Merging with the Tree Wardens team, the Friends of Poulter Park and Revesby Woods group, corporate volunteers from Veolia plus a bit of mechanical muscle-power from id Verde, the ensemble spent the day carrying out a thorough picking up of litter and fly-tipping strewn around and in the woods as well as some more thinning out of mature and congested Blackthorn.
Thursday 5th February 2026 - The volunteers were back at Roundshaw Woods and surprisingly the wet weather kept itself to a minimum.
Pushing into the Eastern half of the woods on todays outing, the first task of the day was the creation of some more dead-hedging to deter trampling into the woods by so many paths.
Once finished with the creation of the barricades, the team moved further in and devoted the rest of their time to some tree felling and Bramble and Holly clearance in glades that had been planted up in recent years.
