Shareshill Churchyard Clean Up

Thank you to the 6 people who braved the weather and gave their time to help to tidy our village churchyard. The group even included a couple of people who were aged less than 60!

Due to the Corvid-19 shutdown, lack of able-bodied, non-shielding volunteers; and unusual weather conditions grass has got out of hand. The tidy up started reasonably dry but the rain gradually increased over an hour and a half. With two petrol strimmers, two wheelbarrows and one rake we managed to clear a significant area overgrown grass. Gradually as the rain got heavier conditions became too much even for the strimmers.

Half a dozen doers achieved much more those who moan on Facebook about the state of the churchyard but aren't prepared to do something about it. Thank goodness there are still some people willing and able to contribute to their community.
