Volunteers needed for clean up on Lewisham river

London's leading waterways charity Thames21, the Ladywell Fields User Group and Lewisham Police Cadets will be joining forces to clean and green a much-loved local river.

The team and local volunteers will be cleaning the River Ravensbourne in Ladywell Fields on Sunday 29 April and will be clearing harmful and unsightly litter like plastic bags from the river and the river banks.

Thames21's Enhancement Coordinator Vic Richardson said, "Thames21 provide practical support, including equipment to local people and organisations interested in cleaning up their local stretch of river. Regular clean ups help to protect wildlife habitats as well as benefiting local people who use and enjoy this lovely open space."
