Report written by Miguel Rodrigues (he/him)
On a gloomy and rainy Saturday morning, the stage was set for a bloody battle. The arena: Vanbrugh Pits; The Gladiators: Julian & Miguel; The enemy: Gorse and bramble;
The battle was brutal and there was total devastation. The gorse and bramble attacked and pushed back, but the gladiators were the ultimate winners. To celebrate, the warriors were treated to a nice cup of tea, some croissants, and some biscuits! They deserved it! In the end, the arena was much clearer and ready for another glorious day. Until next battle!
We will be: cutting back scrub and trees where they are shading out grassland and to open up sheltered spots for wildlife; digging out brambles and ivy where they are encroaching onto rarer plants; cutting back gorse to encourage fresh regrowth and so there is always a range of stages of growth for insects; carrying the cuttings to the edge of the site for the Council to remove.
