left of the Vicarage in Vicarage Road (see I-21 on the Map).
Volunteers
Please bring stout gloves and remember to wear clothes and shoes/wellies
suitable for the weather and the task. Also, bring the tools you
will need for the day. These normally include forks, spades,
long-handled loppers/pruners, scissors and plastic sheets or sacks.
Anything needed beyond these will be listed beforehand on the notice
board at the Vicarage Road entrance to Centenary Fields.
Youth Groups and young people very welcome.
There are tasks to suit all abilities, including those with limited
skills.
Groups and Saturday morning work parties can be arranged if you
notify us well in advance.
We always compost our waste from Working
Parties; if you want to find out more about home composting visit:

The New Year's Day work party is when our volunteers celebrate the
new year with mulled wine and a mince pie - but only after some
invigorating and constructive exercise! Make a New Year resolution
to come and join us.
