Arthur Ball celebrates 25 years and 3000 miles walked whilst volunteering on Cleeve Common

Arthur celebrates volunteering for Cleeve Common Trust for 25 years this February, as he completed his monthly bird count over the hill. Arthurs’s monthly reports are compiled, by him, into an annual report.
