SACV spent this weekend in the Peak District helping the Peak Park Conservation Volunteers with fence repair work on the Pennine Way above Edale. Despite a bleak forecast of plenty of heavy rain, it stayed dry over both days to give us a very satisfying weekend!

Today SACV worked with the Friends of Chorlton Meadows to help restore an important pond habitat. The pond had become overgrown with reeds, and the banks with Himalayan balsam; the work was to clear some of this to restore some areas of open water.
