We will be repurposing timber from the site where possible to use in the construction process. This will be a simple construction process that everybody can get involved with and will contrast nicely with the much larger and longer boardwalk constructed here in February/March 2022.

Crane Park (Willow Way) - Meadow management
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
About 49.0 miles away from your postcode
At Willow Way - Crane Park
Activity description
We will be working across the six meadows in Crane Park, working to control dominant and unwanted plant species (brambles and burdock). In this session, we will be working in Willow Way & the triangle meadow, located directly south of the Lincoln Sports Pitches. Some species can fast become dominant/invasive in open meadow spaces. They will often form dense stands in spring and summer, which shades out wildflower and grass species. Removal is often done in spring and early summer, before seed heads are able to form, to contain the growth/spread of the plant. Dependent on species, we will be utilising a mixture of mattocking, digging, and hand pulling removal techniques.

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.
