Winter at Six Brixton

We are currently going into winter but that does not mean we are stopping by any means. This week we have been collecting leaves for Leaf mulsh in our big metal tanks. This will be used for composting purposes at the Secret Nature Garden next year.
Also local resident Carlos came to us for help in re housing his dog and desperately need a house. Luckily for him, Junior from JNR services dropped one off the day before and it was great to create something which was destined for landfill.
Thanks to Junior and the team for their support for this project. If you would like waste cleared give him a call on 07916461340
 Collected from Somerleyton Road
 Turned into leaf mulsh
 One assembled kennel
