Update: Gardening goes ahead

Friends of Chadkirk volunteers are back in action down at Chadkirk.

Weeding, pruning and planting has been resumed in the Walled Garden and the other flower borders around Chadkirk Chapel.

Having made adjustments to take account of safety advice around Covid, we are able to meet and enjoy the satisfaction and pleasure of time well spent in the open air in this lovely space . For anyone wanting to join in, you can see how you can take part and stay safe here.

The pattern of our gardening time is to be the same as pre-covid. We meet on Saturday afternoons on the first Saturday of the month and on the morning of the third Thursday of each month.

Our next Gardening Team Task day will be on

Saturday 5th September between 2 and 4pm

and there will be another opportunity to garden with the team on Thursday 17th September between 10 and midday.

While it is possible to continue to garden at Chadkirk, we are unable to hold the other events planned for September and October. For this year,  Batbox making and the Harvest Festival Supper will be suspended due to safety concerns.
