Our current programme

The TasksIf you need more information about any of the specific tasks listed below, please ring the leader whose initials appear at the end of each description (names and phone numbers at the foot of this page).  In the interests of brevity, only the primary job for each day is shown—there will always be other work available if a large number of volunteers arrives.  Should it be necessary  for any reason to change the programme, this page will be updated as soon as possible, and a note drawing attention to the change will appear on the home page.

Grid References - These refer to the initial meeting point for each site, and are followed by a brief description of it. Please try to arrive there by 10:00am. Occasionally the group will move on from the initial meeting place, so if you cannot arrive at the start, please ring beforehand for details.  We will also try to place WCV signposts to help you find us.
