About the event

Wednesday evening group sessions are all about coming together as a big team and heading out together to a practical task out in the community.

This week we're teaming up with the Wildlife Trust to visit Dallow Downs, a large nature reserve right on the edge of Luton, the Downs are home to a rare chalk grassland habitat and we'll help look after it by clearing litter, trimming back paths and removing invasive plant species to protect the rare plants. 🌺

We meet up at 6:45 at the outdoor stage opposite the Hat Factory on Bute Street, where we say hi to each other and warm up for the run.

Walkers are welcome but please arrive promptly as we'll send you off a bit early so we all arrive at similar times.

Bikers are welcome too but make sure you've got lights and are happy riding in the road when we're not on cycle paths.

If you would rather join the group at Dallow Downs for the task only please meet the Wildlife Trust at the Dallow Centre, 234 Dallow Rd, Luton LU1 1TB at 7pm
