The Holt Copse Conservation Volunteers
The Holt Copse Conservation Volunteers (HCCV) was formed in 1999 by a group of concerned local residents with the aim of working with Wokingham Town Council in the management of Holt Copse for the benefit of its users and all aspects of the natural environment.
The HCCV undertakes practical conservation work under the auspices of the Management Plan and Wokingham Town Council. The group is affiliated to The Conservation Volunteers (TCV) and affiliated to, but independent of, the Joel Park Residents Association (JPRA).
Membership of the HCCV is open to anyone interested in taking an active part in the work of the group. We hold conservation work parties on alternate Saturday mornings and occasional weekdays throughout the autumn and winter. These mornings are very enjoyable and require no previous experience of conservation work as basic training can be given on the day. See our Events page for the work party dates for the current season.
In the spring and summer months we also organise other activities such as bat walks and plant surveys. Other constructional tasks such as boardwalk and footbridge building are also undertaken to help improve public access to The Copse.
