Sunshine, fresh air, exercise, good company, friendly locals, no commitment and the satisfaction that in only one hour you have made the place a bit better!

If you can spare just one hour the Friends of Maghull & District (FOMD) would love to see you on Saturday (10.6.23) between 0930 and 1030 hrs, more drop-in events 14 & 16.6.23 (see Events at www.fomd.co.uk) to clear the weeds from a huge, beautiful border at our Woodend Community Woodland Project (Bobby’s Wood) on the junction of Liverpool Road South and Northway L31 7BG. There is no commitment, you can do as long or as little as you wish, but you will really help to make a big difference.

It’s the first time this year we have been able to weed this area as we have been waiting for the thousands of daffodils and bluebells to die down, which has given the nettles, brambles, and ground elder a foothold, more than we would wish for even a woodland themed border and will give the hundreds of newly donated plants a chance to flourish!

Please bring secateurs, gloves, large and small garden forks, and confirm times at www.fomd.co.uk/events

Many thanks and please spread the word to anyone who might be interested.

FOMD

A Huge Thank You.

Thank you to Joan who along with myself weeded a further 6m length of the 50 m border in one hour, on Thursday resulting in two more agricultural bags. Along with the two one-hour sessions on Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday we have now conquered about 27 of the 50 m.
