We had four platforms worth of planters to water after the hottest weather Hackney Downs Station has ever experienced. The planters setup by Energy Garden needed a drink. We met Rohan in the control centre on platform 2 and he gave us the watering cans so we could get on with the job. Rupesh and I went up and down the stairs between the platforms nipping back to the control room to fill up the cans between each trip. There are about 20 planters and it took about 45 mins. Job done 👍
