Weather was very November-ish for our last scheduled task day of 2015, although we may hold an ad-hoc one over the Christmas period if volunteers (and the weather) are are up for it.
Today we focused mainly on cutting back and clearing out the main park flowerbeds and the Garth Road shrub bed. We also did some trimming of the roses in the Bandroom garden and shrubs along the path leading to Station Road, litter picking and planted some donated ferns in the wildlife area behind the library.
Although we forgot our donation bucket this time a lady approached one of our volunteers and handed over £50, insisting that we spend it on our volunteers' Christmas Do! She said she uses the park regularly and has been watching what we do all year and wanted to say thank you. A lovely gesture, that is very much appreciated!
