@vervalleysoc.bsky.social Today was Himalayan balsam bashing on River Ver. It was hot, full of mosquitos but happy to see end result.

Excellent volunteers cleared and tidied up Riverside stretch of River Ver today. Tiring but very rewarding couple of hours. Fresh air, good company and beautiful nature. @vervalleysoc.bsky.social

@vervalleysoc.bsky.social We were 37 strong this morning at River Ver near Drop Lane. Our team cleared some fallen trees across the stream. It was hard but satisfying work.

It was hard work but very rewarding. Seeing the water levels drop after clearing a blockage must be one of the most rewarding moments. Looks forward to many more activities in 2026. Love volunteering with these folks. @vervalleysoc.bsky.social

Fair Political Coverage - we want to hear from ALL our parties @fairpoliticsnow.bsky.social · 25/05/2025
These are the 3 leaders of the biggest opposition parties at Westminster - Kemi Badenoch (121 seats), Ed Davey (72 seats) & Stephen Flynn (9 seats) meanwhile Adrian Ramsey leads Greens with 4 seats. How often do they get reported compared to Nigel Farage (5 seats)? Time to demand fair coverage NOW

While you’re at it folks. This is important too. Otherwise we might end up with all our political agendas being controlled by the USA

Wednesday and today, partly in collaboration with Herts Countryside Management Services, @vervalleysoc.bsky.social built berms and deflectors in River Ver. It was hard work but very rewarding. All volunteers working hard for a healthier River Ver. @libdemdaisy.bsky.social
