Share the love
Michael and Sam met Sandy and the members of Kennington Park Road TRA for a Coronation BBQ inside one of the resident's home. They were meant to do an hour of gardening, but this was called off due to the weather. Instead, they got an hour of community building through the love of food, drink and music.
There will be a proper session come July or August.
This task supported
Helping a block of residents to utilise the communal garden, such as cutting back some hedges. Possibly to clear a specific area of land from domestic rubbish and make the space good again.
We have established a TRA (Tenant & Residents Association). Our small gardening projects enables residents including children from their families, to use the communal space. We also host events that include other local TRAs such as being the venue for gardening training & workshops.
