Balsam Bash ... Volunteer Sunday morning  in Crane Park

Friends of the River Crane Environment are a registered charity based in Twickenham, UK, whose aims are to protect and enhance the open spaces and environment around the River Crane.

FORCE

Our Volunteer Sundays take place in the Lower Crane valley and we have a wide variety of activities to suit all in your local environment !

Crane Park, Lincoln Fields

This Volunteer Sunday is the most fun and rewarding of all volunteer days... we pull out the Himayalan Balsam along the river margins. It has shallow roots and is very easy to extract making it very satisfying ! It is an invasive species which &#x27;drowns out&#x27; native species and damages waterbanks. FORCE would greatly appreciate your help in maintaining this local environment for us all as there is always plenty to do. We have a restricted number of places so booking is essential. Please only attend if you have registered and have a &#x27;ticket&#x27;, otherwise we may regretfully have to turn you away on the day.We shall meet at the Kingfisher bench beside the river near to Lincoln Playing Fields. Look out for our FORCE banner.Everybody is welcome to join us.
