About this session

We'll be returning to help Olden Community Gardens to keep their lovely 2 acre orchard and woodland a thriving space for wildlife and the local community.

We have a heavy lifting task for Monday 20th April, moving railway sleepers. The sleepers are heavy and need 6 people to carry each one.

Gloves will be supplied glovers, but as the sleepers are coated with creosote, do wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty!

🏃🏻‍♂️ If running, meet at Arsenal Community Hub at 18.45. ⏰ If meeting us there, meet at at the gardens at 19.00.

The garden gate is on Whistler Street, opposite number 22 Whistler St, just behind the Islington Learning Disabilities centre. What Three Words location for the garden: ///quite.desk.soak.

This task supports

A two-acre oasis of greenery in Islington, running along the railway tracks beside Drayton Park station.
