Shotford Bridge Tree Pinning Work Party

River Waveney Trust Tree Pinning Work Party

Join Jeremy Miege, tree surgeon and conservation landscape engineer, to safely pin a previously obstructing tree along the river bank to allow canoe passage and create a habitat for fish and invertebrates. 

There is plenty of parking alongside the river, where the Low Road has remained closed since the flooding events of December 2020. (Parking at what-3-words location: sampled.weaned.decoding. Message me if you need directions)

What to expect:

A friendly atmosphere, teas & coffee provided

Waders will be provided.

Full training and tools required for the job.

What to bring:

Garden gloves

Plenty to drink and a packed lunch.

Wear hats, sunscreen or extra layers depending on the time of year.

Wellington boots

Please dress for the weather with long-sleeved tops and trousers. Fleece materials are preferable when working close to the water as they are lightweight and dry more quickly.

A dry bag with spare clothes is recommended.

Expenses:

We have limited funds available to contribute towards volunteer travel expenses, inquiries to email Katie@riverwaventrust.org
