GoodGym Richmond and Kingston members with SUP boards joined forces with Dittons Paddling to help British Canoeing, National Trust, Angling Trust and the Environment Agency for their Floating Pennywort Voluntary Removal Day - Papercourt Lock/Newark Lock, River Wey Navigation.

With over 60 volunteers and partners in team work at its best we removed huge amounts of the invasive species Floating Pennywort from the Wey Navigation so it is clearer for use by all!

Pennywort? Pennywent! We were not ‘board’! With so many great partners working together including the Scouts, we were not ‘Wey’d’ down!

And home to be back soon to maintain this invasive non-native species that apparently escaped from aquatic fish ponds…
