Share the love

Seven runners helped out at The Haven to shift some wood chip and clear some brambles.

Yes it’s well hidden... at the bottom of the drive, right at the bins and through the railway tunnel’s forbidding metal gates...

... but what a lovely spot, and what a lovely sunny day!

The Haven is a community garden providing a social recovery space from addiction.

Nathalie and Alice demolished the wood chip pile and soon had it shifted to resurface a garden path.

Meanwhile, Sophie, Natashja, Deborah, Paul and Richard cleared away some brambles and weeds to make way for a new fruit and herbs woodland bed.


This task supported
