Station Forecourt Gardens

Uckfield,TN22 1AE

04 Jun 2011

23:00

A small team will be working at the railway station from 09.30am. The intention is to smarten up the areas that were set up as gardens. You can stay as long as you like, but I am sure everyone will have had enough by 11.00am! Bring some gardening tools with you - a pneumatic drill will be best, given the state of the ground!! (unless we have a lot of rain) - and your favourite gardening gloves. A small group tackled the badly-overgrown garden patches. The ground was very, very dry, and wearing a face mask would not have been OTT because there was so much dust kicked up. The group withdrew at 11.00am with still more work to be done. 9 sacks of garden rubbish were left for collection. Nothing interesting was found during the work..

Sopwell Litter Pickers
Hi, I'm Holly and I'm starting out litter picking to help make the area I live in cleaner and more attractive. I walk to work some days and I always marvel at how much rubbish there is, especially after bin collection days and it stays on the streets for weeks, so I wanted to do something about it! Alone but hopefully not for long, I have started picking litter in my area to make it a cleaner and more enjoyable place for everyone. I hope as I get more experience at this I can rally together the troops to start a regular litter picking group to help out and clean up Sopwell! If you'd be interested in joining me, you can send me an email to meet up and arrange a litter picking date. Tel. 07857 944 443 Email. Cleanupsopwell@outlook.com
