Tonight Claire, Rachel, Julie and Dave started with a warm up before running over to Searchlight where we were joined by Luke en route.

Emily, Jade, Petra and Sabir joined us there where Martel explained our task. We were required to do some heavy duty weeding to clear a bed so that flax could be grown as part of a Ukrainian refugee project by community groups. It will then be harvested to make a community patchwork.

We all got stuck in; Luke removed a massive plant whilst the rest is us tackled the long grass and rubbish.

Meanwhile Dave looked at how they could make a raised bed for wheelchair users.

After an hour the weeds were on the compost heap and once dug over the bed will be ready for planting.

Today was spent cutting back and taking brambles out along with bindweed to make the space look more appealing when entering from Burlington Road.

Today actives changed because of the weather but clean up done and cutting back to encourage healthier regrowth.

Today was spent removing bindweed and sticky weed. Also chatting to passers-by. An innovated idea by Dani was done. Lots of things planned.

Combined a lovely walk along the Hogsmill appreciating the nature with removing rubbish to make this a more pleasing place.

Today in the drizzle I set to digging up weeds on Mrs C patio and border garden to create a nicer place to sit for her when the hotter weather finally arrives. She was very pleased at the transformation.
