Kathryn and Bethan path clearing and Brush-cutting today, from Pretoria terrace towards the Goldie. Bashing bramble and allowing the natural regeneration of trees to come through.

This path is in a really bad state after water damage, we will be looking for funding to get it and some others repaired. What paths do you feel are a priority?

This path going down the hill is full of glass, each time after rain there's more and more appearing. I'm picking it up every time I walk there but it's neverending. It seems that the path was originally made not only from rubble but broken glass and ceramics underneath as well 🙁

I haven't tried exploring the woodlands yet, because as a powerchair user I'm assuming most of it is inaccessible in the wet weather. A few key paths done so they are good enough for a wheelchair (which copes well with rough ground) would be amazing.

Well done and thank you
