One of our volunteers sat on this, then got up quickly as it was an ants' nest. The ants immediately went into panic, and hundreds left the nest, bringing the grubs (the children) with them.

We are experienced woodland advisors with over 80 years of experience between us, and we combine this with a refreshing and pragmatic approach to helping woodland occupiers to work out what they should do with their woodlands and associated open ground. We all have wider skills than just woodland management and can advise on a wide range of farm, deer, river conservation and wildlife management projects. We are happy to hear from other who might be interested in joining us.
