Great UK WaterBlitz – Hyndburn’s Woodlands

Friday, September 20 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join Hyndburn’s Woodlands Officer Brandon for weekly practical conservation sessions. This week we will be carrying out the second Great UK WaterBlitz water sampling activity!

The first sampling session yielded very positive results with both parameters coming back with very low levels of pollutants. Unfortunately, the rest of the UK didn’t fare as well with 75% of samples returned with poor ecological health indicators.

We will be carrying out another sample at the same location as the previous activity.

Tools, gloves and PPE will be provided. Please wear sturdy boots, long sleeves and full length trousers as we may be working around brambles and nettles. Waterproofs may be needed, depending on the weather. Please remember to bring spare water this activity can be quite demanding.

We will be meeting along Hollins Lane, BB5 2QG (Across from the Alma Inn) . Staff will be in orange high-vis. There is on-street parking available.

To find out more or confirm your attendance, please contact Brandon at brandon.cherry@prospectsfoundation.org.uk or 07733 840842
