• Wildflower meadow cut at Victoria Park volunteers needed. Meet at the bandstand at 10am. Over the past 2 years, volunteers helped to plant beautiful wildflower meadows at City Recreation Ground and Victoria Park. In the Spring the flowers started growing and by June they were amass with colour for everyone to enjoy. To ensure the flowers come up again next year, the wildflowers need to be cut down at the end of the season, after the flowers have all finished. This needs to be followed up by removing the debris. We are asking for volunteers to help cut the meadow, disperse the seed heads and prepare the area so that next summer it will look beautiful once again.
