Getting there

For this session we're going to meet at the task, so you'll need to make your own way there. We encourage you to walk, run, or cycle to do so!

    About this session

    The friends of Sutcliffe park has asked for help to clear Himalayan balsam from the park. It is a very aggressive and invasive plant that outcompetes the native flora.

    We will meet the friends of Sutcliffe park by the lake in the park. Please bring gardening gloves if you have them.

    What to look out for

    Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.

    This is a GoodGym community mission. When we're doing a community mission we make our own way to the task, so you can choose to walk, run, or cycle. Thinking of cycling - check out our FAQs

    This session is organised by your Taskforce, a group of experienced GoodGym members in your area. They are not responsible for your safety. You should feel confident to participate in the session as it is described and you do so at your own risk.
