National Trust Awards

Congratulations to John Halligan And Sean Nicholson who were recently presented with certificates and pin badges for 5 years service as volunteers at Alderley Edge, working with the National Trust on various conservation projects.

Work typically involves, coppicing woods, this involves cutting down smaller trees to allow light to ground level which then encourages ground cover growth and wildlife. They have also helped to build many of the paths around the site and also done lots of work on general clearing and tidying.

The Stockdales Conservation group was started in 2009 and both John and Sean have attended every year, through winter and summer, and really deserve their awards as recognition for their dedication and hard work.
