Hatherop Park - Pathway & scrub clearance
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
At Hatherop Park
Activity description
We will be working in Hatherop Park Conservation Area to manage the meadows and pathways. The site is managed for biodiversity by LBRuT. We will look to maintain pathways and push back bramble suckering off meadow edges to maintain the grassland space. Please wear long-sleeves to this event as we will be clearing prickly seedlings (bramble, hawthorn, blackthorn) so let's reduce scratch risk!

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.

Invasive Species Removal & Wildlife Surveys

Help us remove an invasive species around our site called Goats Rue. If left alone, this will take over our wildflower meadow and create a mono-culture. We will be digging up the roots and bagging to take off site. After lunch, we will be running a UKBMS butterfly survey and a National Reptilian survey. Please contact the project officer before the session to sign up.
