Last night we were back over at the wonderful Landor Road Allotments to help out Valcie and the community clean up the space.

It was a small group with Will and AA Yianny running from Papa's and Marie-Noelle and Paul joining us by walking to the task.

After a quick chat about books and festivals the runners set off for the short trip down to Landor Road and we were met by the rest of the crew as well as the indomitable Valcie with the tools and plenty of sweets and treats to keep us going!

The two main tasks were to cut a neat border for the planting areas as well as to clear a section where folk had started dumping all their green waste - big no no...

We divided into pairs and got stuck in and with a solid 45 mins ahead of us managed to get through loads.

After bagging and dropping all the waste and the obligatory family photos we were done for the evening and could relax having only had the lightest of sprinklings from the British summer weather.

Check out the lovely photos and big thanks to all - see you at the next one!
