Many hands made light work of our task tonight at PARCS. Their peaceful garden was quite overgrown with dandelions and bluebells has taken over the path, so we set to work stripping back and tidying.

Fact of the Week came from Dave - I didn't know it was illegal to pick bluebells out in the wild! This is due to their endangered status, with over 50% of the world's bluebells being in the UK.

Katie did her best Oscar the Grouch impression whilst stomping down all the garden detritus in to the green waste bin. Nia and Sam were on hand to clean up after we traipsed the waste through the main building - thanks guys!

We had to stop Laura and Tracey from making a start on the weeding in the driveway area as we've been booked to come back to PARCS in a few weeks time to tackle this area! Their eagerness to help and not waste a minute of GG Task Time was wonderful to see!
