This is a last minute call out! My lovely colleague David is running a session at Jubilee Meadow to create a new pond.

Soooo, if you're keen to get your hands dirty on Friday, meet a few TCV staff or learn about pond creation please get in touch directly with Brittany ASAP. I will be there myself.

Reedbed Management in Dulwich Park Lake, SE21 7BQ
With Biodiversity Action Team (South London)
About 5.7 miles away from your postcode
At Dulwich Park
Activity description
We are very pleased to be returning to Dulwich Park after many years, to help the 'Friends of' group with the management of the reedbeds around the perimeter of the park lake. The reeds haven't been cut for quite a few years so the reed beds are now very large, so we will be reducing the reedbed cover by 25% in the soutneastern corner of the lake. We will be cutting the reeds at ground / water level, and bagging up all the arisings in bulk sacks for the parks staff to collect.
