At Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park
Activity description
Join our Saturday conservation workdays at the Ecology Park and help the wardens carry out vital management work in the park's different habitats - marsh, meadow, lakes, ponds, shingle beach and woodland. Places are limited to 10 on a Saturday, so you will need to book in advance by emailing gpep@tcv.org.uk The first time you volunteer, we will ask you to fill out a TCV Volunteer Welfare Form (or we can email this to you in advance if you prefer). You will be working as part of a volunteer team with the park wardens, carrying out tasks such as pond clearing, reed cutting, meadow cutting, coppicing (cutting smaller tree stems), digging and weeding.

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!

Tool Maintenance Day!
With Richmond Weekday Projects
About 49.9 miles away from your postcode
At TCV Tool Shed Grove Gardens Teddington
Activity description
This is one of two half-day sessions focusing on tool maintenance (cleaning, sharpening, oiling) to give them some TLC after the last few busy winter months. For anyone organisationally inclined, I also need to sort through and organise sections of the tool store (bags of old waterproofs, grouping boxes of screws/nails, etc) and tidy up some of the vegetation on site. Please contact Brittany directly to register attendance for this session.

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.

At Pimp Hall Park
Activity description
We're going to be carrying out a trial programme for a natural way of controlling Oak Processionary Moth by creating 3 wildflower beds as nectar sources to support tachinid fly activity. The flies lay an egg in the OPM caterpillar which hatches and eats the caterpillar from the inside. If the trial works, it will be rolled out across the borough where OPM has become a problem.
