Can you help provide some dignity and beauty to the churchyard gardens of your community asset ? Friends' is a working group run by Community Forum volunteers and we need your help to assist the church in upkeep and maintenance to augment the limited council work provided.
The 1st activities will be:
- Removal of previously cut tree branches and leaf waste left around the churchyard (Grotto Lane end)
- Ground works for two pallet design compost and tree waste / bin areas to improve the general look and provide facilities for easy future working
- Construction of pallet design compost and tree waste / bin bays
- Strimming and removal of arising weeds from rear churchyard area
- Collection of leaf waste retained throughout the churchyard
Public Liability and Volunteer Insurance is provided for all volunteers and work undertaken by the Tettenhall District Community Trust and CiC.
Volunteers may bring their own gardening and woodworking tools, gloves, and should wear appropriate clothing and sturdy shoes. Safety assessments will be provided by PM Steve Robinson.
Refreshments will be in The Swan afterwards.
