Pratical environmental conservation event on common













The project organised a successful free practical environmental conservation event in October 2008. The event was run by BTCV Clif Osbourne and tools were provided by Lambeth Council Rangers, who also took part and helped organised the event. The day was well attended by almost 20 participants, who all received certificates for taking part.

Participants were shown how to identify trees, prune trees / shrubs, fell small trees, create wildlife habitat piles and how to use/carry tools correctly. The young adults taking part also videoed and took digital photographs during the event with tips from Embrace's professional media staff. Also a team building exercise was also undertaken by some of the young people where they had to make a piece of rope into a square shape while blind folded.
