You may have noticed a few residents working at the junction of Charter and Henrys on Saturday morning. Through Paul Dawney we are now responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the green space at that junction. The Council will remain responsible for cutting the grass.
We worked for 2 hours and reckon to have planted 2500 bulbs...crocus and daffodil in the main. We hope it looks great in the Spring. There is also a plan to put a few bushes in front of the sub-station. The Council supplied most of the bulbs
In February we will be looking for a few more volunteers to do another few hours,tidying the edges and cutting back a few more bushes that have been neglected.
A huge thank you to Paul, Kelly,Henry and Ian and his son for their time and sense of humour.
Also to John Griggs for supplying the very welcome cup of tea.
Apart from the obvious prettification of the area we had residents working together who only knew each other by sight before Saturday!
