Here at Thames Chase we encourage individuals to walk as part of a fun and healthy lifestyle. We believe that walking lifts morale\, keeps you in touch with the natural world around you\, and is also a great way to keep fit. We host many walks around the Thames Chase landscape\, and encourage individuals to get involved. \nA small team of volunteers were set up to promote walking throughout the Thames Chase Community Forest. Professionally-produced walking guides are available to pick up from the Thames Chase Forest Centre.  The guides include a sketch map\, step-by-step walking guides and notes on the history and ecology of the walking area. \nThe long term aim is to connect the open spaces throughout the Thames Chase Community Forest for walkers\, cyclists and horse riders\, which is a large part of our wider access pillar in the Thames Chase Plan.

SUMMARY:River Rom Clean-Up: The Chase LNR River\, Wetland & Meadow Restoration and Creation Project
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Point- Eastbrookend Discovery Centre Car Park- RM7 0SS \nJoin Thames21\, LBBD Rangers and Thames Chase Trust in making a difference in your local community by helping us pick litter along the River Rom. We are calling for volunteers of all ages (parental supervision required for under 16’s) to help us to actively improve the river Rom. \nThis is part of the Rewild London funded initiative called The Chase LNR River\, Wetland & Meadow Restoration and Creation Project. \nThames21 has been entrusted by London Borough of Barking and Dagenham funded by the GLA’s Rewild London Fund to deliver a wetland restoration/enhancement strategy for the River Rom floodplain and associated green spaces. This part of the project (Phase 2) has been conceptualised and developed as part of of the Land of the Fanns Partnership Scheme (LotFs). \n \nApart from intercepting and treating pollution\, wetlands have multiple benefits including slowing the flow of flood water thereby helping to protect properties from flooding. By storing water for longer\, wetlands can help to mitigate the impact of droughts\, as they help channel water to underground water supplies (aquifers) – although more research is needed to evidence this. Wetlands can also boost biodiversity\, often transforming nature-poor grassland into thriving green-blue spaces brimming with life. \n*Equipment will be provided and we ask that you dress sensibly\, wear sturdy footwear and bring plenty of water and sunblock. \nFor more info please contact: carolina.pinto@thames21.org.uk \nTO BOOK YOUR PLACE PLEASE FOLLOW THE LINK: https://book.timetospare.com/e/YTtCUHUHh7WH6kfMBLko

SUMMARY:Historic Havering by Vintage Bus
DESCRIPTION:The Land of the Fanns has run two previous DiscoverME trips and is now able to offer people the opportunity to join another day of discovery in a special Historic Havering tour. Fans of vintage transport and lovers of history will not want to miss the event which takes place on Saturday 9 July and will see passengers travelling in style in a 1950’s single decker bus.  \n Beginning at the Thames Chase Forest Centre at 10am\, the Historic Havering round trip visits five properties to reveal their history and connections to the landscape. Those properties are the Old Chapel built in 1800 as a Protestant Dissenters Chapel\, Upminster Windmill dating from 1803 and one of the best remaining English smock mills\, Havering Museum housed in the old Romford Brewery and the 15th century Tithe Barn in Upminster. The tour returns to Thames Chase Forest Centre on the site of Broadfields Farm with a grade II listed barn and a Victorian stable block.  \nDiscoverME celebrates the heritage and tells the tales of the area’s past so those living and working in Metropolitan Essex can share in its fascinating story\, be proud of its history\, and access and enjoy its treasures. \nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/historic-havering-by-vintage-bus-tickets-372225625867 \n
