With so much done on the maze we wanted to take a moment to thank the volunteers that have worked on the maze project and made this all possible. It’s amazing to look back and see how much has been achieved in such a short space of time.
We sat down with Danny, who has been volunteering since October, to see what he enjoyed about the project.
“I really enjoy coming to the woods and working on the maze; everyone is very welcoming and seems understanding of your individual circumstances. Coming on a Monday and Thursday helps give a sense of purpose and structure to my week and has really helped my confidence. I’ve really enjoyed learning new skills and traditional methods of building the maze, from coppicing through to weaving and dead hedging. You can go at your own pace and there are no deadlines so feel like you can take your time and enjoy the work.”
Thanks Danny and thank you to all our volunteers!
