FOD+AG Deep Litter Clearances – Season 2024 – 2025 Dates for your Diaries. (N.B. dates are provisional at the present time) Please note that we rarely miss our monthly sessions and annually attempt to visit every part of the Downs at least once. The nature of the task we undertake, however, can be affected by exigencies of weather and events of which we cannot be certain this early in the season. Please ensure, therefore that you consult the monthly newsletters sent to members of FOD+AG, our website and/or our Facebook page during the fortnight before the published provisional dates to obtain details of each session, when we will be in a better position to complete planning. the provisional dates are : 26th October 2024 30th November 2024 4th January 2025 25th January 2025 23rd February 2025 22nd March 2025 The timing of each clearance is always the same, starting at 10.00am and finishing at 11.30am but meeting points and target areas are chosen closer to the event. At least until the end of this season, the person to contact to sign up will be Martin Collins by eMail at < [email protected] > or by telephone at 0117 924 9435 Please note too, that for insurance purposes and to allow us to provide sufficient equipment for all volunteers we need to be contacted by the Friday before the date of the event. For volunteers new to “wombling” with us, contact must be several days before this to ensure that our paperwork can be in place before we meet. _____________________________________________________________ |
