Runnymede and Ankerwycke will be closed until further notice due to flooding. The A308 has been closed by Police and we ask that visitors stay away during this time. We are monitoring the situation and will update as we know more. 📷 by volunteer @stefsmithart

In 2021, seed was brush harvested, by our Lead Ranger & scientists from @kewgardens, from Langham Pond meadow. The seed was sent to Kew Millennium Seedbank where it's been stored for 2 years. Today our Rangers and Volunteers scattered the seed. Thank you Kew Millennium Seedbank!

Have you spotted Willowtwisters latest public art installation at Runnymede? This piece is inspired by The Gleaners, an oil painting by Jean-François Millet. There will be three sculptures standing at 24ft tall. Sara will be working on these sculptures throughout August.
