Report written by Dom Tooze (he/him)
Today four GoodGymmers headed to Prospect House to help bring some order to the planty area outside Prospect House in Bishophill.
Pete, one of the local Bishophillbillies community group, worked with us on these last year and asked us if we could return to tackle a jungle which has sprung up since then.
We spent a good 50 minutes working on the area, stripping away crispy weeds and a load of stickywilly, and by the end we'd made a real impact on the beds with 4 big bags filled - carving out a bit of space for other plants (including some pollinators who have been clinging on to life, just about) to recover and thrive.
Mission accomplished.
Bishophillbillies is a local group of volunteers committed to beautifying and improving green space in Bishophill. To this end they focus on maintaining the community garden, creating green corridors and providing a platform for residents to contribute to their neighbourhood.
