Help us care for Rother’s micro woods this National Tree Week

Through funding from the Coronation Living Heritage Fund, community volunteers have planted three micro woods across Rother to commemorate the coronation of King Charles III, enhance the spaces for visitors, and improve biodiversity.

Residents and local groups are invited to join a working party to support these small but important nature projects during National Tree Week, through some hand weeding and spreading mulch. No gardening experience is necessary, and you can drop in for as long as you like.

Bexhill: Monday 23rd November, 10 am – 1 pm, Bulverhythe Recreation Ground (near Sophie’s playground)
Rye: Wednesday 25th November, 10 am – 2 pm, Mason Field, Mason Road (opposite Tilling Green Community Centre)
Battle: Friday 27th November, 10 am – 2 pm, Coronation Gardens Recreation Ground

Refreshments will be provided, and the events are subject to dry weather.

All volunteers are asked to:

• wear clothing and footwear suitable for the weather and the activities, including gardening gloves.
• please bring a shovel or hand shears/secateurs if you can
• walk, cycle, use public transport or car share wherever possible, and please park considerately to local residents.

Please confirm your attendance by email to elize.manning@rother.gov.uk.
