Today was our regular Monthly Mission to Nunsmoor Park and I took one for the team as everyone else was hiding from the rain or at the other Community Mission for Newcastle Parks!

I helped out with the regular volunteers at the park and today's task was:

Clearing ash from alongside the walkway that goes through the middle of the park

This was an important job that keeps the area open for safety and generally makes it look tidier. It was really satisfying to do! The best thing was that I managed to avoid the worst of the rain as I spent most of the time under the cover of the trees. The task leader was really appreciative of the help as the volunteer group was smaller than they get when the weather is nicer!

We will be back at Nunsmoor Park in August, come along if you can.
