A quick community mission saw 9 GG Yorkies make quick work of raking the arisings at West Bank Park.

Armed with rakes, pitchforks, wheelbarrows and one giant tarp- everyone set about raking. Piles were lifted onto the tarp and dragged into the composting area.

Digby the 'Good Dog' did his best helping; he chased the rakes, jumped on the tarp and made sure we all knew where the squirrels were too.

It took less than 30 minutes to clear all the cuttings, so we even had time to turn over all the compost and cut back some brambles too!

There are two community missions available next week, see the listings here.
