Reedbed Management in Dulwich Park Lake, SE21 7BQ
With Biodiversity Action Team (South London)
At Dulwich Park
Activity description
We are very pleased to be returning to Dulwich Park after many years, to help the 'Friends of' group with the management of the reedbeds around the perimeter of the park lake. The reeds haven't been cut for quite a few years so the reed beds are now very large, so we will be reducing the reedbed cover by 25% in the soutneastern corner of the lake. We will be cutting the reeds at ground / water level, and bagging up all the arisings in bulk sacks for the parks staff to collect.

Leyton Jubilee Park Green Gym
With Leyton Jubilee Park Green Gym
At Leyton Jubilee Park
Activity description
Leyton Jubilee Park is Waltham Forest’s largest park, created atop an old landfill site dating back to the 19th century. Sitting in the Lea catchment, Dagenham Brook runs through the park, offering a riparian connection to the nearby Hackney Marshes. Our work in the park largely surrounds the maintenance of our recently planted woodland, which is still in the early stages of its life, work including tree planting, weeding and mulching. Other work will rejuvenate pathways and provide care for our newly created flower beds. Join us in a park with an exciting range of habitats and species!
