It's a welcome return visit to see Sybil and the team at The Emmanuel Parish Church (Romford Road) - Sybil is looking forward to seeing us (as always!) and assures us "we're in for a pleasant surprise" on our next visit...

Inevitably there will be digging, clearing, raking, bagging, watering, possibly a bit of planting, but overall it'll be a case of getting our hands dirty and further maintaining the garden (after our last planting and weeding visit) during the summer months, and helping out the other volunteers who always join our sessions!

Please bring gardening gloves if you have them - other tools will be provided, and there might be post task refreshments too...

There'll be a run option (c1m/1.6km) from Freaks and Geeks (West Ham Lane), and a bag drop - we'll meet there at 6.45pm and return there after the task - alternatively you can meet us directly at the task, where Sybil will undoubtedly give you a warm welcome.


How are you getting there?
