Volunteer Floating Pennywort Removal Event | River Weaver | Winsford

17 August 2024 10:00 AM - 17 August 2024 3:00 PM
Open to all

 

 

As part of our ongoing efforts to tackle Invasive None Native Species (INNS) –  The Angling Trust & Paddle UK are holding a volunteer event, removing Floating Pennywort from the The River Weaver in Winsford.

First naturalised in 1990 as a result of discarded plants from garden ponds, Floating Pennywort can grow up to 20cm per day and may quickly dominate a waterbody forming thick mats and impeding water flow and amenity use. May out-compete native species by blocking out light, causing deoxygenation, obstructing air breathing insects from reaching the water surface and reducing water temperatures

Our events are inclusive as possible with physical and non-physical roles available on the day. We encourage everyone to get involved.
