About the event

Painswick Park is an amazing greenspace that provides a haven for nature, and you can help to make it even better by joining us clearing the protected meadow area of encroaching scrub. 

Get hands-on and learn how to use tools like loppers and bow saws as well as our brand new tree poppers.

You will learn how these actions support your local wildlife and have the opportunity to spend time outdoors with members of your local community.

Please note that you must be over 18 to join this session. All abilities welcome and no experience is necessary.

Please book your FREE space below to ensure we have the right amount of tools and staff, we understand that plans change, so let us know in advance if you cannot make it.

The session will still run in mild rain/bad weather, but we will contact you the day before if the weather forecast is too bad to be able to safely go ahead.
