Harmonix Construction and Tetra Tech clearing the tree guards

In January and February two of our supply chain partners Harmonix Construction and Tetra Tech volunteered for two afternoons clearing the tree guards that had been in place for almost ten years adjacent to the large balancing pond in Oak Vale. Tree guards are put in when new trees and shrubs are planted in an area to protect them from the elements and wildlife. These tree guards are made of a non-biodegradable plastic so it’s important to remove these when the trees and shrubs reach maturity.

Great Crested Newt Monitoring

We are lucky to have Great Crested Newts in the various ponds around the site. As they are a protected species we keep a close eye on them to ensure they are kept safe away from any construction work that may be happening nearby. The black plastic fencing around several of the pond areas is designed to keep the newts safe and stop them from wandering too far away.

With just under half of Berewood complete, there are still plenty of job and apprenticeship opportunities
