A great opportunity for all ages!
Please see the latest poster for the first engagement event of the year at the Hawthorns on Southampton Common.

06 Dec 25 - Big Park Tidy
We'll now be running our annual end-of-season Big Park Tidy on Saturday 6 December. This replaces the session originally planned for 2 November. Usual arrangements: wear old clothes and sensible footwear. Brooms, shovels etc can be provided - but if you can bring your own, better still!
We should be in full swing from around 10.30 'til the job is finished. Just turn up.... see the home page for details about any possible last-minute change due to inclement weather. Refreshments available as usual.
Here's this year's poster (pdf format) to print/send out.
