My daughter asked me if I had permission to cut back the bramble on council-owned land. Permission from the land and the reptiles who will benefit from the liberated mats which can now greet the morning sun.

Lovely to spend time with this thoroughly inspiring bunch of people at the launch of the new #WildService book in London last night โฆ
I'm looking forward to reading this new book from Right to Roam!
Why nature needs you...
#wildservice
I'm backing Right to Roam's #LoveYourRiver campaign and asking everyone to turn their love into #WildService to protect and conserve 'their' river (we're really only borrowing them for a short time).
Whatever your reason, your river needs you๐
Read in the thread for events.
So weโre turning our attention to a future which must see not only a restoration of customary rights, but a cultural reset in which respect, care, guardianship & reverence for nature become the norm. We call this #WildService . Rivers are the obvious place to start.
The best birthdays involve a brilliant #book , a new mug and an afternoon with birds in my little yarden. I knew I had seen the book cover before too - Green Man, meet Green Man.๐ Thanks Right to Roam for a most wonderful #WildService book.๐๐โค๏ธ๐ #whynatureneedsyou #book wilding
Join us to talk about land, loss, #wildservice and share cake beneath old trees.
Norfolk Right to Roam are holding a walk along part of the proposed route of the Norwich Western Link road.

Day 2 of #WildService with River Roding Trust. We cleared 28 bags and 3 giant rubble sacks of litter from the river & planted black poplars in its place.
Black poplars are now our rarest native tree, due to the loss of water-meadows.
And we were planting some of its rarest genotypes!
Off to London to meet my fellow #WildService authors after we spent an emotional night around a fire basket in a wood. Immensely proud to be among them. There are authors you know, & authors you may not yet know, that will move you & blow your socks off. This is more than a book.
โI canโt change the world but I can change the little bit around meโ ๐ณ
As June ends, thank you to everyone who took part in The 2 Minute Foundation #thecoffeecupchallenge ! ๐ซ Together we can make a difference. A #2minutebeachclean or using our reusable bottle. ๐ #WildService #LakeDistrict
Hundreds of folk at the premiere of 'Rave on for the Avon this weekend': a film about the Bristolians who love their river & Conham Bathing Water Group's fight to defend it.
Grassroots ecology is here. It's happening. Nurture it, catalyse it, fund it. This is nature's future.
