Grass Strimming and raking
With Bedfordshire Environmental Action Team
About 19.1 miles away from your postcode
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.

Plant surveys and thistle clearance
With Bedfordshire Environmental Action Team
About 15.1 miles away from your postcode
At Sundon National Grid (Chalton)
Activity description
We have just started a new long term project at this brilliant little site, to improve biodiversity. As we're in the early stages, our first few months are concentrating on recording what's on site now, and keeping on top of the plant species that would otherwise take over - mainly thistles. So our sessions are a mix of scything, raking, and walking over the site to survey what's there. Something for everyone!

Cleaning and applying preservative to the Bower Seating Area roof in Archbishops Park SE1 7LE
With Biodiversity Action Team (South London)
About 47.4 miles away from your postcode
At Archbishop's Park
Activity description
We return to Archbishop's Park, this time to give the roof of the huge seating structure bower a good scrub with water and washing up liquid, and then to treat it all with timber preservative oil once it has dried. The Community Trust group have already preserved the rest of the structure, but they need our assistance to get the roof done, to ensure the structure will last for many years to come.
