The rain held off for the monthly visit to the Ham Lands and 3 spirited GGers met the Friends for some nature conservation work.

As is not uncommon on Ham Lands missions, the bulk of the task involved clearing brambles - this time from an area near the path to Teddington Lock. The team attacked the spiky suckers with gusto, making short work of a good-sized area and even taking the time to lay some branches as protection for a badger set they had uncovered during the work.

As usual there was plenty of good chat and good cheer, and the team went away to enjoy a warm and sunny Saturday happy with their efforts.

The next Ham Lands task is on Saturday 13th April - you can sign up here: https://www.goodgym.org/v3/sessions/helping-the-happy-ham-landers-2b1574e4-0866-416a-983c-453a36d5d2dc
