London Rivers Week: Balsam, Birding and Beer!

In celebration of London Rivers Week join the Friends of the Welsh Harp for a session of Himalayan Balsam bashing. Finishing up at the hides for some birding and beer!

We’ll be tackling the forest of Himalayan Balsam on the Eastern Marsh of the Welsh Harp (Brent Reservoir) which is where the River Brent enters the reservoir. The area is well off the beaten track and is a hidden oasis teaming with wildlife. Because of the dense vegetation it is recommended to cover arms and legs and definitely don’t wear sandals!

Please get in touch if you’d like to come or for more info.

Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.

Binoculars, beer and non alcoholic beverages will be provided
Meet 6pm by Cool Oak Lane Bridge, next to Woolmead Avenue.
