The team had a productive session tidying up at Squirrels today! Kicking things off with a real test of strength, with a very large roll of paper that needed shifting in the van - the perfect warm up! We then got stuck into some serious tidying with trimming a tree and clearing weeds and moss, leaving the area looking much neater. Great work, everyone, it's always brilliant when we make a visible difference!
