Boardwalk repair or replace?

Monday, October 15th 2018

This morning we had the fun and games of an LPG tank replacement, you've got to feel for the guys over at Landmarc who have over 25 of these to swap in the North alone, some of which hold 25 tonnes of gas!

Despite the scale of the job it didn't take very long until the road was free from tanks, trucks and tired workforce.

Meanwhile we've been continuing to dismantle one of the Green Route boardwalks on the South side of Risedale Beck, and have even now been able to start cladding and joist work between the two remaining sections.

Work should continue on Thursday depending upon the progress made on coppicing the Willow Carr tomorrow.

Join us on a nature-based wellbeing walk around the reserve.

Having a sense of place and connectedness, being grounded is important for our general wellbeing and mental health. This is an invitation to pause and explore what being in nature can offer you.

Enjoy an afternoon of wellbeing starting with some mind awareness followed by a gentle walk where you get to listen, smell and watch what is around you and connect with any feelings which arise.

Bookings close 19th June.
