Ashley, Pete and Rachel met with task owner Ali from Friends of Littleover Parks to discuss what the group would be doing to help with park maintenance.

Litter was collected from the children's play area and then the group set about removing weeds from where the safe rubber flooring met concrete. It was great to see the park being used by so many - children in the play area, dogs being walked and sport being played.

Although sad to see the Olympics 2024 come to a close, the group were all looking forward to the Paralympics and reflected on how well Team GB had done and what a fantastic games it had been for the host nation.

Thanks to everyone who helped out this evening, well done Pete for actively travelling to the session and a huge thankd to Ashley for providing something for the group to graze on post session.
