29-01-2018: Information post - Another sewage pollution incident on the Hogsmill

If you live and work near the Hogsmill River, as it winds through Ewell and Kingston, I thought you would be interested in the South East Rivers Trust newsletter this week. It contains important information regarding two recent sewage discharges into the Hogsmill River.

Until next time.

13-01-2018: Tackling invasive rhododendron at Kingston Hill with the Environment Trust

Now you don't see me... 

We had our last Rhodo bash of the winter on Saturday.
We had another fantastic turnout of Duke of Edinburgh volunteers with the Environment Trust as well as KUBAG volunteers. This meant that we were able to start to clear new areas of Rhododendron which we had never tackled before!
