Project Update 15/04/24

Volunteer work for the Yeading Brook Unbound project are now underway!

Last week, Luke and local volunteers from Streamside Open Space and Roxbourne Park, helped to remove washed out bank reinforcements and builders waste from the river channel which was impeding the natural state of the river. Removing these unnatural features will help to naturalise the materials of the river bed, and improve the condition of the brook. Have a look at what the teams managed to achieve in half a day's work:

Next week we will be back at Roxbourne Park on Tuesday tackling the invasive non-native himalayan balsam from the river banks. On Thursday we will be introducing marginal aquatic plant species to the new scrapes at Brockley Hill Open Space. And finally, we will be back at Bentley Priory on Saturday helping the wardens tackle the invasive cherry laurel from Lake Wood.

For more details about these projects, or to take a look at what else is coming up in may and June, visit the Upcoming Activities section of this page.
