We had our first session out for our new collaboration with Home-Start this evening, getting ready to jazz up the Family Hub gardens across the city.

Our primary task this evening was prepping the external fences for a paint job, which involved not only sanding down the wood, but removing a delightful layer of moss as well! Jane, Dave and Katie made some new friends that they discovered in the wood grain - check out Bert and Ernie in the pictures!

Judy and Jen were Team Table, sanding down and sprucing up the kids' picnic benches with a pallet of blue paints.

We also used the forces of nature to aid out prep and clean up, with a found stick becoming a marvellous paint stirrer and some soggy leaves to mop up splodges of paint from the concrete!

This was a beautiful, thoughtful show with an evocative soundtrack.

I helped welcome visitors and give them a leaflet which listed future events. Then at the end, we set up the chairs in a semi circle for the school children who are coming tomorrow. The winner of the chair-moving competition was impressive, sliding 6 in one-go! 🏆
