On the gorgeous Crosby Beach in balmy weather we weaved through the groups of families and friends, all enjoying the a day at the seaside, picking up litter the folks leave behind!

Crosby Beach is famous for the Anthony Gormley status, the installation known as Another Place the peace features 100 cast iron figures standing in the sand, all facing out to sea. Sadly for us today (but fortunately for them) they were absent for the first time, all getting a much needed spruce up ready to be put back in place. In the meantime we were sprucing up the beach and the dunes!

A shout out to Jess for her 5th Good Deed earning her High Five badge, and to Carol earning her Easy Ten badge for (you guessed it) 10 good deeds!

And a huge thank you to the amazing Friends of Crosby Beach for loaning us their litterpicking equipment and supporting us today. The Friends group are out there on a regular basis keeping the beach clean and safe for all of us and without the dedication and care of such fab volunteers the beach wouldn't be the beautiful asset to our city that it is! We were glad today that we could do our small part to help.

We have been back with the Bread Streets again helping out with what feels like painting never ending railings!! The neighbourhood group are there most weekends as it's a really slow and very big job, we are happy to add a few more hands in when we can.

It's making such a difference to the park though so it's all worth the effort. And it's only part of the plans the community has for the area. We are delighted to be able to join in (it's those amazing views across the Mersey that keep us coming back..... and maybe the cake and cuppa always on offer too!)

We'll be headed back for a third session on Saturday 19th June so come and join us!

Great to have Haila join us for her first session.
