SCV planted a Memorial tree in the General Cemetery in honour of Chris Ashby, one of our Volunteers who sadly passed away recently. The tree was a multi stemmed Rowan Tree.

Working at Broomhill Library Community Garden. We are helping Broomhill Community Trust, who run the library, to renovate the Garden. We have been helping them clear soil, rubble & vegetation from the site. We had our first visit in 2019 and have worked there several times since.

Wadsley & Loxley Common January 2024

We were clearing saplings from the meadow area and along the corridor linking it to the picnic table meadow. There is little grassland on the Common, so these areas are good for flowers and also an important place for waxcap fungi in the autumn. A black & yellow ladybird was also rescued from drowning in our tea! Photos kindly donated by Heather Worden
