This week we are helping Grass Roots Forest School CIC on the Island by the canal, yes that's right there's an Island down there!

IMPORTANT: We'll be meeting at 7:30pm outside The Fox to grab tools and walk over to the land together, please arrive on time/5 minutes early as once we head over we won't be able to come back and get you if you're running late - getting onto the land is a bit tricky!

If you'd like to combine this with some exercise there's also a running training session happening at 6:30pm in Elthorne Park just before - sign up for that here.

What to expect:

We'll have lots of job to help with including...

  • Bridge building with logs/branches
  • Raking through pesky ground cover ivy
  • Clearing ivy from suffocating trees
  • Shifting fallen or cut wood/branches

What do you need to take part?

๐Ÿงค Gloves - preferably the gardening kind! โœ‹ Hand sanitiser - it's a staple these days! ๐Ÿ˜ท A mask - in case we need to pop inside or get too close ๐ŸฆŸ Bug spray - lots of people getting bitten on outdoor tasks at the moment! ๐Ÿ‘– Long trousers - they'll protect you from stinging nettles!

About Grass Roots Forest School:

This is a great opportunity to help a charity that does that offers learners the opportunity to achieve and develop confidence and self-esteem through hands on learning experiences in an outdoor environment.
