Who this task will support
Palace Road Nature Gardens
This small nature garden was created in the 1980s. It provides a varied habitat of both an open grassland and a wooded area of exotic and native trees. The pond attracts dragonflies and damselflies flying above and frogs and newts swimming below. Gerry always needs a hand to keep the paths clear of brambles and weeds and to make sure the public space can be enjoyed by everyone.

Palace Road Nature Gardens is located at the top of Brixton Hill and we at Goodgym have been helping them keep the gardens tidy over the past few years.

Jobs to do usually include cutting back ivy, collecting leaves, grass cutting and other gardening tasks.

This time round we will be helping to clear the overgrown vegetation around the pond. There are additional tasks to be done depending on the number of volunteers we have.

Please bring gardening gloves! 🧤🧤 **Please also wear long pants to avoid scratches, stings and bites.
