A practical guide on how to spot and remove invasive Himalayan Balsam and protect our local wildlife.

More Information (3FM is not responsible for external websites)

The aim of this event is to help people identify, report, map and pull Himalayan Balsam, which is an invasive plant. Wear appropriate clothes for outdoors in the Isle of Man and footwear suitable for wet areas. If you like getting stuck in and seeing immediate results, this is the event for you.

If you know you are allergic to anything you could find outdoors, bring the appropriate medication. The event will be at The Raggat, there are parking spaces at the entrance to the site on Glenfaba Road. It would be good if you can car share to avoid congestion. Although there is room for plenty of people a maximum of 20 are going to be able to benefit from the guided walk. Suitable for teenagers and above.
