Led by Brian Good, the party works in partnership with Alton Town Council to carry out monthly conservation tasks in the Flood Meadows, a 15-acre area of public space around the source of the northern branch of the River Wey.
Volunteers spend two hours carrying out a range of tasks related to maintaining the waterside paths, trimming back or removing vegetation and generally enhancing the natural beauty of this rather special area for all to enjoy.
Tools are provided, along with refreshments, and bringing wellies is recommended for those comfortable with wading in the river.
A spokesperson said: “We can usually find appropriate tasks to suit the interests and abilities of our volunteers, and over the years this has grown into a very friendly and supportive experience for all concerned.
“In addition, we are often in a position to direct people to further volunteering opportunities within Alton on an ad hoc basis as and when they arise.”
