Labour plants roots in Vauxhall Park

Jack Hopkins, Labour Council Candidate in Oval, joined Labour activists and the Friends of Vauxhall Park for a day of bulb and tree planting.

Over 30 men, women and local children braved the wet and windy conditions to clear and plant a beautiful bulb patch due to flower in Spring 2010. The volunteers also planted a number of trees around the park ready for the New Year.

The Friends of Vauxhall Park are a voluntary group who protect and enhance the park for the benefit of all local residents. Annual membership costs just £3 for individuals, £2 for the unwaged and £5 for family membership. Visit their websiehttp://www.vauxhallpark.org.uk/

The Friends also hold community events, Easter egg hunts and maintain the fabric of the park for all local residents. Please consider joining and coming along to meet your neighbours at their next tree planting and urban gardening programme!
