Gardening Spring Tidy

We’re having a Spring Tidy in the Playground Garden and around the site on Wednesday 3rd May between 10am and 2pm.  Many of our volunteers will be lending a hand so it would be a great opportunity for prospective helpers to come along and see what’s involved as well as find out about our other volunteering opportunities.
