North Pennines National Landscape

Join us for a practical day to help dig up and remove the invasive plant, Garden Lady’s-mantle (Alchemilla mollis) from an Upper Teesdale beck, on Thursday 22 October

This area of Upper Teesdale in the North Pennines National Landscape is especially important for the population of rare native plants that are found there. If the Garden Lady's-mantle is left to set seed, it poses a risk of spreading to further sites and possibly out competing and replacing the native plant communities there.

This activity requires a good level of fitness as well as the ability to navigate uneven terrain. Training will be given the morning of the event. Please wear suitable outdoor clothing and footwear appropriate for the weather.

Location: Langdon Beck. 

Suitable for ages 18+

Volunteer opportunities may be postponed due to weather conditions, any changes will be communicated at least 24 hours before the event where possible.
