SUMMARY:Volunteer with Northbrook River Action Group!
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to one of London’s newest wetlands which is already an award-winner!\n –\nNorthbrook wetland was created from a damp grassy area in a park in Lewisham\, SE12\, by daylighting a small stream. It has two ponds linked by a channel plus meadow and woodland areas. This peaceful urban oasis is popular with residents and park visitors of all ages.\n–\nA new River Action Group is now looking after the site with monthly sessions to manage vegetation plus create wildlife havens including a stag beetle loggery and dead hedge.\n–\nCome along to join us! Our next meeting is on Friday July 17 at 10am and we work until 12.30. \n–\nVolunteers are welcome to take food and drink breaks\, especially in the hot weather\, while tea\, coffee\, drinking water and biscuits are provided.\n–\nPlease wear sturdy shoes and practical clothes which you don’t mind getting dirty.\n–\n\nFor full details\, please email Clare at northbrookrag@yahoo.com.\n–\nThe hard work creating Northbrook wetland was recognised with the 2026 CIRIA Susdrain environmental award for a large-scale retrofit project. Judges highlighted the transformation of a ‘grass desert’ into a rich and diverse wetland that benefits people and nature.\n\n–\nLocation: Northbrook Park\, Baring Road\, London SE12 0JS (about 100m from the South Circular).
