Tool Maintenance Day!
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
About 1.8 miles away from your postcode
At TCV Tool Shed Grove Gardens Teddington
Activity description
This is one of two half-day sessions focusing on tool maintenance (cleaning, sharpening, oiling) to give them some TLC after the last few busy hot months. I also need to construct a new wheelbarrow shelf for use in the cargo hold of the new van (which doesn't have nice flat ply housing around the wheels to sit things on/is wider than my previous van). I welcome all ideas for this!! Please contact Brittany directly to register attendance for this session. Please note the tool store does not have running water/electricity. The closest loos are an 8 minute walk to The Anglers Pub (opens 10am).

Hatherop Park - Pathway & scrub clearance
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
About 3.7 miles away from your postcode
At Hatherop Park
Activity description
We will be working in Hatherop Park Conservation Area to manage the meadows and pathways. The site is managed for biodiversity by LBRuT. We will look to maintain pathways and push back bramble suckering off meadow edges to maintain the grassland space. Grassland is a priority habitat in this greenspace as grass snakes and slow worms rely on open habitat to bask. Please wear long-sleeves to this event as we will be clearing prickly seedlings (bramble, hawthorn, blackthorn) so let's reduce scratch risk!
