Gooseberry bush has lost a lot of leaves.

Some of my Gooseberry bushes have lost a lot of leaves?  It might be slugs (as there are a lot of weeds near by - not my responsibility).
Any advice?  Will they recover?

So has one of mine!

It's possibly sawfly, but I didn't have a close look.

Should be OK next year, just think yourself lucky it didn't happen earlier in the year!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

One of mine had all its leaves eaten even after I found 2 of the caterpillars, the rest must have been wearing camouflage or been invisible
