We enjoy working to make our CLOSED CEMETERIES – BROAD LEAS and WESTWOOD ROAD – a welcoming place for visitors and for nature.  We are spending time clearing ivy from the older graves while it is cold, and planting them up with snowdrops and primroses.

Members of the Eco-Ivo group help us plant wildflowers and weed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WESTWOOD ROAD CEMETERY 2017 and 2018:  We are making a difference this winter, following on from our great day in May 2018.  The Army Cadets fulfilled their commitment to helping the community, by helping us with a hard day’s work at the cemetery.  Thank you so much to them all!

 

BROAD LEAS CEMETERY 2017:  At our visit in May – again our volunteers tidied round the older graves, and put in some bright new flowers.  The blackbirds were singing and all was peaceful – do go and have a sit in this natural area so near the centre of town.

STATION ROAD, APRIL 2018:  Great display of daffodils come up along Station Road.  We have weeded round them, put in some summer bulbs and sprinkled some poppy and wildflower seed.

  • BROAD LEAS CEMETERY: We have gone back to Broad Leas this spring.  The ivy needed some cutting back, but lots of the spring flowers have come through, and our volunteers added some small shrubs behind the bench.
  • WESTWOOD ROAD CEMETERY:  Looking beautiful and tidy again after the disaster of a van driving through our daffodils.  The wildflower area is ready to burst into colour for the spring.
  • BULB PLANTING 2017 and 2018: New daffodils at Westwood Rd, Old Ramsey Road, up at Warners Park and in the Parish Churchyard, and more verges at the junctions of Hill Rise planted in 2018!
