Helping hands needed in community garden tidy-up
Following a spate of incidents, we are calling on all forces to gather together to help us tidy and repair our Trinity Community Garden, this Sunday 29 June from 11am onwards.
Over the past few weeks our much-loved project - which provides a unique inner-city oasis and is a base for activities with children and families, adults with mental health issues and refugee groups - has been hit by a spate of vandalism attempts and fires, one of which has caused serious damage to our Outdoor Kitchen.
Following these incidents, many people have come forward to show their support. We would like to give thanks to all those who have offered to help. Special thanks must go to Incredible Edible Bristol who have generously donated £200 towards repairing the kitchen, as well as The Bristol Wood Recycling Project who have offered to donate wood needed for the rebuild.
We are calling on willing and able volunteers to take part in the mass volunteering day this Sunday, to help clear the site ready for the kitchen-rebuild. Come along, lend a helping hand and share in a celebratory communal lunch made from home-grown ingredients.
If you are unable to help out on the day but would like to show your support you can Text TGDN13 £[the amount you want to donate] to 70070 to make a donation to the Trinity Garden Project.
We are also looking for donations of the following materials to repair the Outdoor Kitchen:
- 15 x straw bales
- sand clay
- 2 x 4m long 4'' diameter round posts
- short self-tapping screws
- 2 x double glazed doors
- 4 x wood shutters
- 12 good hinges
- and a partridge in a pear tree!
We are also hosting Our Big Gig Sunday 13 July with all donations collected on the day going towards the garden project.
