We’ve been following the progress of the volunteers involved with the Green Gym for sometime now and notice that this week they’ll be getting to work on Rew Down.
The group meets every Wednesday at different locations around the Island, helping to clear overgrown areas, tidy up and conserve our Island’s natural beauty.
If you can’t make it along this week, cvheck the links ta the bottom for details of the forthcoming events, next week is Brading Down and the following, Cowes County Primary School.
Here’s what they say about this weeks outing to Ventnor.
Always a lovely location, this week we are to build a style, remove some of the invasive non-native species, and improve our cardiovascular fitness.
Believe me; a few trips up and down the incline on this reserve will soon get the blood pumping!
The invitation is open to residents and holiday makers but booking is essential, so if you plan to join the merry team, do call Colin Withers on 01983 866459 to book your place and to confirm the event is still going ahead.
Alternatively you can email them on greengym(at)footprint-trust.co.uk
