Volunteer Floating Pennywort Removal Event | River Weaver | Winsford

16 May 2025 10:00 AM - 16 May 2025 2:00 PM
Open to all

 

 

As part of Invasive Non Native Species (INNS) Week – 12th – 18th May 2025, 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 can quickly dominate a waterbody forming thick mats, impeding water flow and amenity use. The plant out-competes native species by blocking out light, causing deoxygenation, obstructing air breathing insects from reaching the water surface and it can reduce water temperatures.

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