The harsh winter weather and a winter bug took its toll on our turn out for the first Volunteer session of 2026 at Pennington Flash. Even so, with reduced numbers we continued with the dead-hedging along the central path beyond Edmonson’s Hide. Should you be looking to become involved in some local volunteering for 2026, our team Pennington Flash Volunteer Group meet each Wednesday on the car park at 09:30 a.m. A couple of hours aimed at conservation and looking after one of the regions important habitats for wildlife.
