Park 'Tidy-up Sessions'

The first 'Tidy-up Session' took place on @8th May at 6.00pm.

These sessions are open to anyone with a spare hour on the second Saturday at 11.00am or last Wednesday at 6.00pm of each month to come along to Marie Louise Gardens and help with general maintenance, weeding, pruning, tidying and anything else that might need doing. Colin Evans of South Manchester Parks Dept. will provide tools and members of the MLG committee will always be present. Some light refreshments will be available. So, don't be afraid - come and do as much or as little as you want or even just sit and supervise!

Obviously, the City Council is still responsible for regular 'heavy-duty' maintenance - grass cutting, major tree works and upkeep of paths etc.

The proposed dates for these sessions up to the end of August are:-

Sat June 14th 11.00am

Wed 25th June 6.00pm

Sat 12th July 11.00am

Wed 30th July 6.00pm

Sat 16th Aug 11.00pm

Wed 27th Aug 6.00pm
