First visit of the New Year to the Miltoncross garden.

We started with a game of domes and dishes with a narrow victory by the yellow team! That got the heart rates up ready for raking, digging, picking and moving.

Maura filled a bag with litter including a sports water bottle and flowers / that had come over from the graveyard.

Charlotte got an unexpected workout from the heavy leaf bag, Rosie kept piling up the leaves and branches while Jen got her favourite job of chopping down a tree! Rachel was collecting the branches and the litter that was unearthed.

Tony pulled up the decking which Sam, Angela and Jo got their 10000 steps in just by taking it around to the bins.

A very productive evening with the area looking so much clearer than when we first went there.
