Scrub Clearance for Riverbank Primary School
Groundwork are running this project to help Riverbank School have the use of this unused piece of land for teaching. They can undertake our junior river wardens project in the future, once it is cleared.

We need help to dig weeds up in a small area of scrub land that has a few trees in it, random yukka plants and lots of ivy. There will be petrol/electric power tools, maybe brushwood cutters being used in the area but mainly digging and pulling things up by hand. Removal of branches & non native shrubs then re-planting native species. A fence is also planned to be erected. Litter picking, general tidy and clearing ready for the school to use for teaching.


How are you getting there?
