Grand Opening - Saturday, 4th September
We will be having an official opening of the Riverside on Saturday, 4th September. The plan is to have food available, put on some music and some other activities and welcome everyone down onto the river site.
Anyone down there recently will have seen that we now have the open air classroom built and ready to use. There are also several benches and picnic tables in position and ready to use and paths have been cut to encourage people to walk the site. Our new notice board is up too.
We held a very successful community planting day at the start of the summer and this helped us get some fruit trees and shrubs in. We will be having a community bulb planting to coincide with the opening to help us get some bulbs in for next year.
During September you will see far more trees getting planted and we continue to build the community orchard and establish a woodland.
If you have any plants or trees you would like to donate then please get in touch.

Here is a picture of the structure with Kev from the Community Service Justice Department who helped lead the building work. Great job, Kev!
