Volunteers met in the car park of Hunstanton Golf Course then walked across the Course to the sand dunes. Gary from NWT arranged the task with the Le Strange Estate, owners of the foreshore at Old Hunstanton. A large area of Buckthorn on the top of the dunes required cutting down to ground level. He would follow them to apply herbicide to the surface of the cut stems. The cut shoots both large and small were piled onto the beach then collected by a tractor and trailer and taken from the beach to be shredded for compost. A large area of mature Buckthorn, was cut down and transported away but further areas need to be cleared. The volunteers were thanked by the Le Strange Estate for all their efforts. Lunch was taken by members at the local beach café, at the invitation of the Estate.
