Jubilee Square is a community area and needs attention to keep the planters looking their best. There may be weeding and litter picking to do. Larger bits of brown waste can be added to the dead hedge

Please join us in this beautiful public area just off New Malden High Street. We need hardy volunteers to help with the task(s). The space is important to biodiversity so make sure to take care and any litter should go in the bins provided on site.

Risks
Jubilee Square is a public space so it is possible that occasionally the litter may include glass. Please bring gardening gloves to protect your hands as some of the plants have spikes i.e. brambles. The planter beds are raised 0.5m high, so people need to take care getting in and out of them. Drinks and tools will be provided.

Meet at the Quaker Centre at 6.30pm for a 3.7km run there and a 3.7km run back. Please be aware that it's a slightly longer run than usual. If you would like to meet us there at 7pm the address is: Jubilee Square, Cocks Crescent, New Malden, KT3 4TA.
