Willow Way - River bank planting & hedge gapping
With Richmond Weekday Projects
About 13.9 miles away from your postcode
At Willow Way - Crane Park
Activity description
We will spend a day planting a newly cleared river bank, located in Willow Way. We will also be weeding and gapping up the hedgerow planted along the edge of Crane Park's A316 meadow last year. We are working in collaboration with the London Borough of Richmond to maintain these blue and green spaces. The riverbank planting is part of a larger project, along the River Crane, looking to improve the habitat for water voles. We will be planting a variety of species, including structural species and those preferred by water voles as a food source. Water voles were released along the River Crane in 2024, with further releases in the works. It is likely we will only need to use thigh-high waders or Wellies for the work along the water's edge. We have a selection of both available, but most of them are bigger sizes (7 and upwards). So if you have smaller feet, please bring an extra pair of thick socks.
