During December, RMCVolunteers continued with the weekly tasks of river fly and water quality monitoring at various sites along the river. In addition, vegetation was cleared at Meon Springs, members visited the beaver enclosure at Meonside Farm, had fun at the HIWWT festive bonfire, attended a meeting of voluntary groups at SDNPA headquarters, participated in the winter bird survey at St Clairs and a number of us met at the Bucks Head in Meonstoke for a festive meal. A busy end to 2025.
