We were delighted to receive a call a few weeks ago from Britt Hatton, who is an Civil Service Operational Delivery Graduate.
Britt was looking to propose that a team of Volunteer Graduates could come out to The Brightwell to help and give up their time for the charity.
We, of course, said yes please, and Doro Pasantes agreed a date for Thursday 11 May.
We were so fortunate that the sun shone all day on the date of the visit.
Steve Fitt, our Facilities Manager, had prepared a list of outdoor tasks for them to tackle.
The team worked so hard and achieved far more than anyone could have anticipated, including a major de-weeding of the garden paths and blockwork around the Centre. They also started the setting out of the new vegetable-patch, which will be a fantastic addition to the garden once completed.
Britt commented “We have all really enjoyed working outside today and everyone has been so kind and friendly.”
Steve Fitt was more than impressed with the standard of help commenting: “I’m over the moon with what has been achieved, and very much hope they will return in the near future to help us again.”
Thank you all so much, we are exceptionally grateful.
