    Path and Picnic Benches Installation at Southern Park SE10 0BW

    With Biodiversity Action Team (South London)

    At Southern Park

    Activity description

    We return to Southern Park to install a short 14m length of self-binding aggregate path leading into the grassland, in front of the new estate entrance beside Southern Park. We will also be creating 2 low level, turf covered bunds from the excavated soil & turf to run along either side of the path, to encourage people to stay on the path and not wander into the meadows areas on either side of it. We will also be installing 2 picnic benches within the park with hardstanding surrounds, and securing the benches to concrete anchors below the ground to ensure they stay put. Finally we will be topping up the aggregate level in the path we installed a few years ago, on the other side of the park.

    With North Essex Biodiversity Action Team (Midweek)

    At Gosbecks Archaeological Park

    The fields at Gosbecks are cut for hay in midsummer. It is important to remove Ragwort before the cut as it is harmful for horses and cattle. Removing Ragwort by hand means that all the other plant life can be left to thrive.

    Grass Strimming and raking

    With Bedfordshire Environmental Action Team

    At Great Stukeley Sssi

    Activity description

    This site is a rare and important grassland habitat so we're helping to manage it for wildlife by keeping nutrient levels low. Strimming the grass off and raking it away from the grassland means nettles and thistles are less likely to thrive, giving more chance for wildflowers to do well.
