Who this task will support
Grange Primary Wildlife Garden
We need help clearing the existing pond so we can line a new pond with fresh water, plants and habitat. This will provide habitat for local birds, pond wildlife, school curriculum topics, a welcoming and calming space for the children, teachers, parents and even the wider community to enjoy.

About

Roll up your sleeves for a one-of-a-kind volunteering workout! We’ll be lifting, shifting, and hauling buckets of water to transform a tired pond into a vibrant home for frogs, insects, and plants.

✔️ What’s the task?

Phase one:

  • Remove the old plastic grate
  • Drain the pond and clear the space

💚 Why it matters

This new mini-wetlands space will give local children a place to learn about wildlife, while offering the community a green space that supports wellbeing, connection, and biodiversity.

🧤 What to bring?

Gardening gloves if you have them.


How are you getting there?
