Volunteer Day Back by Popular Demand

Date for your diary Sunday 20th November 2011. 10 am to 3 pm

We are again arranging another volunteer day with Kent Wildlife Trust, Thanet Coast Project and Friends of the Westbrook Undercliffe Nature Park. We have been granted a Nature Pack of 105 Saplings to plant by the Woodland Trust.

Last February's planting was affected by the Spring drought but 50% survived so we need to replant some and add other areas. So if you are up for some fresh air and exercise why not join us in our efforts to increase nature on the site.

More details will be released next month and we hope to have activities for all the family. There may even be cake again.

Our efforts last February have been rewarded by the increased wild flowers, butterflies and birds on the site. We would like to build on this success.

Watch this space.

BLINK- Blinking Marvellous Margate

Wow what a brilliant spectacular event. Well done to all those involved. This showcased Margate at its best in art, sound, dance, light, fire and fireworks to many thousands of spectators. Events like this will "Turneround" our town. Keep it up.

Looking at the Website for the above event this weekend this looks to be spectacular.
Check out the website: blinkmargate.org.
Lets keep our fingers crossed that the weather holds.

Freecycle

Have you visited the dump lately and seen what people throw away only to be crushed and to join the endless amount of landfill. One of the best ways to recycle is to re-use. Check out:
http://www.freecycle.org/

This is a brilliant site where you can advertise any unwanted items for free. You can even post wanted adds. I have used it a number of times and it works very well. Furniture, washing machines, old TVs or monitors someone seems to have a need for them. By using the site you are also saving landfill and its obvious costs in terms of money or the environment .
