Volunteer Day - Tree stake and guard management

🌿 Volunteer Day at Enfield Chase – Landscape Recovery Project

Enfield Council and the Friends of Enfield Chase invite you to join us as we continue the Landscape Recovery project at Enfield Chase.

Come along and help London breathe for the future. Take an active role in restoring our landscape, meet like‑minded people, enjoy the outdoors, spot some of our rarer wildlife, and speak with knowledgeable staff about the project and how to get involved.

🌲 What Are We Doing?

We will be working together to:

• Check tree guards and wooden stakes along Salmons Brook
• Repair and reposition guards where needed
• Collect guards for recycling or reuse

Your support helps protect young trees and maintain a healthy, resilient landscape.

🎒 What Do I Need to Bring?

• Water and your own lunch
• Weather‑appropriate outdoor clothing
• Sturdy boots or wellingtons

Tea, coffee, and biscuits will be provided for all volunteers.

An induction briefing and a health & safety talk will take place at the start of the event. A member of Enfield Council staff will be on site to guide you.
