This is a partnership project with the Severn
Gorge Countryside Trust, funded by the Heritage
Lottery Fund, and many other contributors.
The
aim is to develop opportunities for people
to volunteer at the Green Wood Centre and the
Severn Gorge Countryside Trust year-round.
At the Green Wood Centre Ron Smart will be
leading a coppice restoration project and
encouraging volunteers to help coppice local
woodlands.
There
are plenty of training opportunities, both
with Ron, and on the Green Wood Centre courses.
Tasks
so far have included deer fencing and tree
planting at the Wrekin, and work at the Green
Wood Centre,
where the Cruck Barn has been beautifully
converted into a volunteer centre.
The aim is for people to have fun, learn
new skills and contribute to the management
of
this very special area. The project has
received wide support, with funding
from:
