Report written by Stephanie (She/Her)

Philip and Stephanie joined Friends of Portswood Rec on a perfect sunny Saturday morning to help give the garden some pampering. We were tasked with clearing an area in a shady spot and filled a large bag full. Now the spot is ready for the local Scout group to plant some native English Bluebells which will delight everyone next year when they flower. There is always a refreshments break organised by Denise and her welcoming team of volunteers.
