Dozens of Nationwide employees will be rolling up their sleeves and improving on nature next week.

Members of the Great Western Community Forest team will be joining forces with 52 people from Nationwide's financial management and corporate planning and strategy department.

They will spend four hours cleaning up Croft Wood, in Pipers Way, on Monday, June 21.

They will remove redundant tree guards, old fence posts and wire, clean up vegetation in the lime tree enclosures, prune young trees and plant wild flowers in various locations.

The activity is part of an ongoing commitment by Nationwide Building Society to maintain Croft Wood, which almost encircles the company's building.
