Come and help control the invasive Himalayan Balsam species by the riverside. No tools or experience required, just bring gloves if you have them and we recommend long sleeves and covered legs - you might want to wear insect repellent if you get bitten frequently.

Meeting at Ham Street car park, or if you arrive late, just walk along the towpath towards Teddington Lock to find the group.


How are you getting there?
