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.

Removing tree guards at Hythe Lagoons
With Essex Biodiversity Action Team (Weekend Only)
About 49.1 miles away from your postcode
At Hythe Lagoons Local Nature Reserve
Activity description
Tree guards are used extensively to protect saplings from deer and rabbits which like to chew the bark of young trees, which can weaken or kill the trees. It is recommended by the Forestry Commission that tree guards are removed after 7-10 years, to prevent plastic pollution of the environment. We will be removing tree guards at the Hythe Lagoons nature reserve and hope to send the used tubes to a recycling centre.

Plant surveys and thistle clearance
With Bedfordshire Environmental Action Team
About 35.4 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!
