In early October a group of local residents took over Nightingale Green to help clear the place of weeds and litter, install new plants and cut back old growth. However, the site needs looking after and Marian Temple and our community gardeners cant do it all. We need your help.
Every other month we take part in the litter picks organised by Dan Slipper. Nightingale Green is further from our litter picking patch, but we aim to include on the rounds. Can you help us look after the green? Just keep an eye on it and let us know if anything needs to be done? Then please e-mail info@wansteadsociety.org.uk
September is a busy month for us, but this is quick update to let you know that we turn 20 on Sunday 24th September.
To mark the occasion we are holding a small get together in Gallery 84 in Nightingale Lane between 3-5pm. Come and have a glass of prosecco on us to celebrate. If you would like to attend, please just reply to this e-mail as we need an idea of numbers at Info@wansteadsociety.org.uk
On Sunday 17th September we will have our usual stall at the Wanstead Festival. If you are free, pop over and see us. It always a great day and we would love to meet as many of our members as we can
