A great deal of work was achieved by a small band of volunteers on our first routine mid-month task day of 2014. Jobs included a full litter-pick of the park, access road and around the community buildings, repairs to the War Memorial display panel frame, repairs to the door on our tool store and removal of graffiti from the backless bench on the driveway into the park.

Numerous park benches were treated with preservative and Midnight the Owl was given a coating of "Green-Away" to remove algae ready for treating with preservative next time. The biggest job of the day was the thinning-out of an abundance of Cowslip and nettles from the woodland wildlife area behind the library and the planting of a variety of more desirable subjects including Borridge, which is loved by the bees.
