The volunteers have worked tirelessly for the last few months in the Japanese Garden.

They have cleared hundreds of bags of overgrowth to help reveal many of the original features. Thank you!

Now clear, we can assess the area and add to the existing planting. 🌺

⚠️ Due to the Met Office yellow weather warning, our next regular volunteering session on Sunday is cancelled.

A few volunteers will be on site tomorrow (Saturday) from 10am, and they will be working around the Chinese Garden. Everyone is welcome to attend.
