Friends of Thomsons Bush off to a Good Start
Friends of Thomsons Bush started off in May last year. In the six months they’ve been working on removing ivy they have given a total of 331 volunteer hours and removed 73 fadges of ivy. Meeting most Wednesday mornings from 10.00am to 12 noon, they have a regular base of about 5 people. They have been liaising with Derek Winwood, ICC Parks, who recently acknowledged the group, writing “thank you all for the wonderful work that FOTB has completed over the past months, your passion and drive is amazing.” There is still more work to do removing ivy, however the group are hoping that they will soon be able to start on woody weeds, once a formal agreement is in place with ICC.
