About this event

Here’s the perfect opportunity to get yourself and the beautiful Elrick Hill into shape! Help the Rangers protect the heather moorland habitat on the hill by 'bashing' the encroaching bracken plants.

We will provide the necessary tools but please bring along your own heavy duty gardening gloves, as well as a packed lunch and plenty to drink.
