Please can we ask everyone to arrive on time to ensure you do not miss the health & safety and task briefing. If you are late and the session has already started, you may not be able to join. Thank you.

The Task:

Creating a woodland scallop that allows sunlight to reach the ground creating warm microclimates for butterflies, bees, and other invertebrates. They are curved which helps to protect wildlife from harsh winds which helps our birds, bats and insects nest and shelter.

No experience needed!

10.00: Minibus departs from Lido, please don’t be late!

10.15: Arrival on site for safety briefing

11.30: Tea & coffee break

13.00: Minibus arrives back at Lido, work finishes, time to go home, thanks for your support!

What to Bring:

Please bring your gloves (we will have spares) and dress for the weather and the task.

Long trousers are advisable as there may be ticks and thorny vegetation. We also recommend wearing steel toe capped or sturdy boots rather than trainers.

Wear layers that you can remove if you get hot whilst working. Bring a waterproof as most of our sites have no shelter from the rain. If it's sunny bring a hat and suncream.

Please bring plenty of fluids. We will bring a tea kit and biscuits.

Please note:

Biscuits are served at all Chiltern Rangers sessions. Please advise if you have an allergy.

Sometimes there is a need for us to use power tools that can be noisy.
