Reed Bed Maintenance Weekend

Come and help maintain our reed bed system and find out how it works.

    Friday 16th to Sunday 18th October 2020

    Space is available on this event! :-D

    Here at Bradwell we have a fantastic biological system for waste water purification. This involves filtration through a series of reed beds culminating in purified water that drains into a final pond. This pond is a haven for wildlife and is frequently used by educational study groups. Due to excessive reed growth in the pond we need to have a weekend of maintenance. If you would like to learn more about the reed bed system and spend a day reed cutting then please come along and join us. If you have never used a scythe before then this is a great chance to have a go. The weekend will be led by Malcolm Hardy and Jonney Aldridge, both experts on the system. 

    Arrivals: from 3pm Friday - first meal is dinner at 7pm

    Departures: 3pm Sunday

    Costs: adults £86 (Basic Rate) £108 (Benefactors Rate). Normal child rates apply (If you are bringing two or more children with you, aged 3-18 years, then the oldest child is free of charge for this event)
