About the event

As part of the 'Reuniting Sydenham Hill Wood and Dulwich Wood' project, we are offering free guided woodland walks for the local community. This warm invitation is for residents from Lordship Lane, Sydenham Hill, Countisbury House, Kingswood Estate, Peckarmans Wood, Crouchmans Close and Crescent Wood Road.

Join us to discover more about the woods on your doorstep with Sam, our Senior Nature Recovery Officer. We'll take a tour of the woods and look at the work we have completed as part of the project. We'll explain what we hope the work will achieve and of course, take in the wildlife we encounter along the way.
