Churchyard Working Party
|
The Churchyard Working Party are volunteers who meet once a month, usually on the third Friday, to maintain the churchyard around the Church and the Church Hall grounds.
For August and September, we are catching up on work and having 2 sessions a month - 7 and 21 August and 4 and 18 September. In 2019, our churchyard won CPRE's "Devon's Best Churchyard" award, thanks to the hard work of all the volunteers. We have entered again in 2020, so please come and join us! Due to Covid-19 crisis we cannot meet as normal, but we are now successfully working together in socially distanced groups of 6! If you would like to help, come up to the churchyard around 10.00 on a working party day and we will find you something to do and somewhere safe to do it! Please bring your own tools and refreshments - we will stop work at 11.00 for socially distanced groups to enjoy their refreshments and a chat! Most people work on till 12.00 - 13.00, but you can do as much or as little as you like - every bit helps. You are welcome to come and join us - please get in touch if you would like to know more. Each month the ‘green gym’ activities may include: weeding, brushing paths, trimming back shrubs, sorting flowers, oasis and containers; cutting grass paths in the old Churchyard; cutting the hedges, trimming path edges; removing mole hills and disposing of any debris, where possible.
