About this event

  • Event lasts 4 hours 30 minutes

We will be doing some vegetation management, cutting back bushes to improve access and help wildlife. The meeting point is at 10:30 at the entrance to Lake View Park on Lake View Road, opposite the juction with Malvern Road.

As usual, dress for the weather, we will be on muddy paths and near brambles and you may need to wrap up warm. Bring a packed lunch and a drink. Work gloves provided, but feel free to bring your own if you prefer. Bring Wellies if you have them - if you would like to borrow a pair get in touch and we can arrange for that.
