The Friends of Oakworth (Holden) Park
Work parties
Sunday 3rd April 2005

 

We'd love to see you come along and help us tidy up in our park. If you do, we recommend that you wear suitable clothing such as walking boots or Wellingtons, along with clothes suitable for dragging brambles out or clearing paths, heavy duty gardening gloves and warm head gear in the winter months.

We have regular work parties to clear paths and do other jobs in the park, see our calendar for dates.

One of the things that concerned us was that we found new cigarettes on the floor which had been emptied of tobacco, this may have been done to use the tobacco in a roll up cigarette with 'other substances'.
