Report written by Windsor and Maidenhead runner

Share the love

Claire, Juli and Sheila met up at the Craft Coop and collected a big bag full of garlands and hearts made by various Knitting and Crochet groups in and around Maidenhead. These had previously been used to decorate the Methodist church at the top of The High Street, but had been taken down to show respect afer the death of The Queen. Our task was to put these up again ahead of the Town Show. The knitted bunting was strung up in the trees (watch out for the prickly rambling rose!), the hearts hung on the large Hebe shrub, and the garlands used to decorate the railings. Several passersby asked us what we were doing and expressed their approval. The town centre looks great!
