Another busy event last night at Ninesprings Cafe. Yeovil Country Park. BA20 1QZ with our railway event, over 50 attendees meant standing room only. Wonderful model layouts and exhibits from able2achieve, Yeovil Railway Centre, and South Somerset Heritage Collection. Fascinating talk from Phil at Aarchive Films showing restored pictures of the railway which once ran through YEOVIL COUNTRY PARK. Lots of stories including a couple of school friends reunited after many years at the event and a family member from the station masters house! We were surprised what a popular event it was, and are already planning the next... in a bigger venue! If you didnt get to watch the film of these restored photos, you can access it via Aarchive Films website or Utube channel.

Play Day at Milford Community Hall yesterday was very busy and full of fun, with free activities, and the launch of our Milford play consultation. Lots of people came with their ideas about what Milford needs.

Recently the original play castle had become unsafe and sadly had to be removed, but the good news is we are going to replace it with something else equally - if not more - fun!

Look out for us with the suggestion boards at other Milford events where you can give us your ideas of what you would like to see there. We do have a limited budget but want to use that to put in place exciting new play structures to make Milford Park amazing! Thanks to Abri Housing for their support with this.

🌿 A great effort from our Estates Team! 🌿

A big thank you to our Estates Team, along with one of the the The Friends of Sidney Gardens team were out today helping to keep Sydney Gardens looking its best. 👏

Unfortunately, we didn’t have any volunteers join us today, but we’d love to see more members of our community getting involved!

🌱 Our Volunteers’ Morning takes place once a month 10-12 and it’s a great opportunity to meet others, get outdoors and make a real difference in our local area.

If you’d like to get involved we would love to see you. 🪏🌱 🌺
