Join the team from Groundwork South to help remove the pesky floating pennywort from this local waterway. Floating pennywort, a species originally from South America, can quickly spread throughout waterways, leading to loss of local biodiversity and increased flooding risk. It forms large rafts on the surface of the river, that can also prevent recreational use of waterways. They will be removing this plant in the river from various infestation hostpots, so be ready to get stuck in!
