PLAY supported by Morrison's and CSV's Action Earth

On Saturday 21st June between 10am and 12 noon a working party from PLAY set about cutting back brambles and nettles, trimming trees and clearing an overgrown corner of the recreation ground in Leigh. This is part of a project to reclaim the recreation ground for the use of local children, to provide a safe, attractive area in which they can play.
PLAY is a group made up of parents in Leigh and other local supporters who are working to provide a better environment and more facilities, at the recreation ground, for the children in Leigh.

The activity is part of a five–month campaign called CSV Action Earth supported by Morrisons supermarkets. The campaign is organised by the national charity Community Service Volunters (CSV) and involves over 900 voluntary organisations, businesses and community groups that will be undertaking projects that are of immediate and lasting benefit to the environment.
 

The oak tree is climbed by many children.

The morning's clearance was sponsored by Morrison's Action Earth.
