This community centre in Pollards Hill was a new location for our group session and we'd picked a chilly night for it! The aim was to help clear a large flower bed of soil but a slight change of plan meant we were tasked with collecting up the large piles of leaves along the front walkway and in the car park and putting them in hessian sacks. This was to help prepare the centre for a community event on Saturday. As it was, we whizzed through both jobs at tree-mendous speed and didn't throw in the trowel until the site was transformed. Congratulations to Rachael for completing her 50th task, Williams for his 25th and it was great to welcome Sonia to her first session.
