Who
are we?
Friends of Hollingbury and Burstead Woods
are a group of local people who look after two areas of woodland off
Ditchling Road near Hollingbury Golf Course. The aim of the group is for
people to be able to enjoy the area and for wildlife to thrive.
What we do - We meet once a month to carry out practical
work in the woods, ranging from tree and hedge planting to path maintenance
and litter clearance. This work is carried out under the guidance of a
Brighton and Hove Park Ranger and our group’s Project Officer.
Work sessions – On the first weekend of the month,
alternating between a Saturday and a Sunday, we run work sessions from
10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Gloves and tools are provided and no special
skills are required - just enthusiasm! For tasks such as tree
thinning and planting a new hedge, training is given. The work is not
too arduous and everyone works at their own pace.
We stop mid morning for a break and a chat, with coffee, tea and biscuits
provided. See the Activities
page for dates and details.
