About this session

This evening we will be back with the Oxford Preservation Trust, this time in West Oxford!

The Oxford Preservation Trust have asked for our help clearing ragwort from one of their fields in the Harcourt Hill area. Ragwort spreads quickly and can be harmful to some wildlife, so let’s do some clearing!

Tools will be provided but please bring gardening gloves

We will meet at the Brookes Sport Campus (home of Harcourt Hill parkrun) and walk to the task together.

There are loads of lovely footpaths over towards Boars Hill so we will have a run after the task.

This task supports
Oxford Preservation Trust
Conserving the best of Oxford’s past and help create a positive future for our great City.

OPT cares for acres of land in Oxford’s rural setting and a world famous view, opening it up for everyone to enjoy. They conserve buildings from cottages to castles, and even a railway Swingbridge.
