| This year the FoWC only had to invest in minimum |
equipment for |
the | ||||
| volunteers as existing equipment continued to perform well with no |
major | |||||
| breakdowns. These are put to good use in cutting |
the paths through | |||||
| overgrown woods, maintaining the grass paths for walkers and general |
||||||
| maintenance. | ||||||
| The work over the Common has been undertaken |
by unpaid volunteers |
|||||
| who have freely donated their time for the benefit |
ofthe public. Without | |||||
| the volunteers, the excellent progress which has |
been made this year | |||||
| would not have happened. |
||||||
| The FoWC would like to publicly thank the following: |
||||||
| ~ the landowners, the Bentall family, who have |
been very | |||||
| accommodating and supporting. |
||||||
| ~ The Threadgold family for their support and |
||||||
| ~ The Gossip ofGreat Wakering and Waitrose for their financial |
support | |||||

| Summary ofthe main achievements ofthe charity during the year |
During its 4th full year, the FoWC have continued to exceed the initial plans and the Common has seen many new members ofthe public visiting and enjoying what it has to offer, including but not limited to, healthy exercise, acting as a community meeting place, vehicle to |
|||||
| volunteer and participate in a local project, and even wild fruit and |
||||||
| blackberry picking in the summer. |
||||||
| The spring cutting ofthe grass and clearing of nettles was delayed |
due to | |||||
| very wet weather. Although it was not possible to |
arrange working |
parties | ||||
| in spring / summer due to Covid, the trustees and |
a few members | |||||
| continued to maintain the Common. |
||||||
| The increase ofvisitors / users ofthe Common was welcomed but |
it did | |||||
| cause additional problems, mainly of litter. The FoWC paid for a bin to be |
||||||
| placed at the entrance and this is maintained and |
emptied by volunteers. |
|||||
| During the year the FoWC have: | ||||||
| ~ cleared and reclaimed several paths on the Common |
||||||
