Transport & Address: We will be working in the River Wye near to Barrowcroft. We will meet at the Chiltern Rangers depot at 2pm to get our waders on!
The depot address is Kingsmead Depot, 60 Fennels Road, High Wycombe, HP11 1SL. Unfortunately there isn't any free parking on Fennels Road, there is a pay and display car park right next door.
The Task:
We will be clearing the central channel of the river Wye by removing unwanted vegetation and litter that we find.
Timings (please note these timings are approximate):
14.00: Arrival for safety briefing, please don't be late!
14.15: Work begins
15.30: Tea & coffee break
17:00: Work finishes, time to go home!
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 advise to bring spare clothes as we are working in the river.
We will supply waders and a buoyancy aid if necessary. Or feel free to bring your own waders and buoyancy aid if you have them.
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.
