Episode Synopsis

 The Heath and Pond are often called the 'jewel in Petersfield’s crown', with its abundant wildlife (including badgers at secret locations.)  The Friends of Petersfield Heath run work parties of volunteers to carry out conservation work agreed with the Town Council, which includes woven ‘dead hedges’. The Work Party organiser is the Vice-chair Jordan Bleach and he explains the work they do. With 20 - 30 volunteers from primary school age to people in their 80s, they can achieve a great deal and more volunteers are always welcome.
