Maintenance

The BWT land is managed by dedicated Volunteers under the guidance of BWT's Environment and Conservation Adviser.  

 

Organising the maintenance is a complicated balancing act of seasonal tasks, available people and weather conditions. The system is masterminded by our maintenance organiser,  who plans the schedule with regular meetings and impressive wall charts to achieve the aims of the Trust. 

Coppicing is a Winter job. 

Fences always need mending.

Bark chippings are applied to muddy paths.

Mixing in the requirements of sponsorship just adds an extra dimension!
