Spring grassland management
With TCV Leicester Volunteers
About 33.5 miles away from your postcode
At Wing Water Treatment Works
Activity description
We will be carrying out a selective spring grass cut in two of the eight grassland parcels which are devoid of wildflowers. All arisings will be hand raked and moved to the field margins where it will compost down. Our other important task will be to uproot thistle, it is important to maintain a clean wildflower/grassland mix where possible especially as this grass will be conditioned into hay for animal feed at the end of summer, therefore the removal of thistle from the grassland parcels is deemed necessary.

Ham Common Woods - Scrub management
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
About 49.9 miles away from your postcode
At Ham Common Woods
Activity description
Last year, TCV planted a hedgerow along the residential edge of Ham Common Woods, off Church Road. We will be working to maintain the hedgerow through weeding, scrub clearance and ground aeration. The species planted include hawthorn, blackthorn, spindle, elder, & hazel. Hedgerows are valuable habitats as they provide a dense and varied scrub for animals to nest and feed within. Hedgerows also provide a long, continuous, green corridor to aid the movement of species across greenspaces.

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.
