This CITO event is set to last for 3 hours and some attendees like to stay for the entire session, however this is not an obligation.
Please feel free to turn up whenever is convenient and just stay as long as you wish.
🌿 ALNEY ISLAND NEW YEAR PATH CLEARING 🌿
Parking: Is in the Alney Island Reserve car park (see waypoint). Please note you can only access it leaving Gloucester, on the westbound side of Westgate Bridge.
Where: Meet in the car park for 10:30 to collect tools. For anyone arriving after that time find us working along Castlemeads path (CITO coords). Today's starting point for trimming will depend on progress made during the previous CITO event here - I will post an update regarding the work site nearer the time.
What: We will be working our way along Castlemeads path, trimming back and clearing bramble and undergrowth that is starting to encroach, and removing any low hanging branches.
How: The Countryside Ranger will be there providing guidance. Please bring work gloves if possible and if you wish to use your own tools (shears, loppers) please bring them along. Don't worry if you don't have tools as the Ranger will have a supply.
Health and Safety: The session and will be covered by Council insurance as long as you are working under the Countryside Ranger's instruction.
Please think about bringing a drink and maybe a snack for breaktime. Homemade cake will be available 😁
