Volunteers from the Friends of Western Flatts Cliff Park have been making the most of the lovely weather by weeding and tidying in the Rose Garden ahead of the Bands in the Park events over summer.

Members of the committee, along with local residents, have been spending their Friday evenings working to restore the walled garden back to its former glory in readiness for the upcoming Bands in the Park event.

There’s still a a lot of work to be done so the Friends have decided to make this a regular event throughout June to ensure the area is looking its best.

If you want to get out in the lovely weather, meet new people and help make a difference in the local community, new volunteers are welcome.

Grab your gloves and tools and head along to the rose garden Friday evenings from 7pm between now and 23 June to help out.

The park will welcome the Friendly Band on Sunday, 25 June and the Friends will be holding a cake and refreshment stand and pay as you feel book stall. We hope to see you there.

You can keep up to date with the upcoming events over on the Friends’ Facebook group.
