We Need Your Help: The Parks Trust Gears Up for Annual Make a Difference Day

by Sarah Featley

The Parks Trust is calling on the people of Milton Keynes to pull on their wellies, wrap up warm and lend a hand on its annual Make a Difference Day, which will be held on Saturday 22nd October 2016.
This year, help is needed to plant spring bulbs at Willen Lake North between 10am and 12noon. Those keen to take part should meet staff from The Parks Trust at The Labyrinth maze at the north of the lake at 10am.
Volunteers are asked to dress for outside work with relevant footwear, and bring gardening gloves and a spade or trowel – all other equipment will be provided. Free parking can be found at Willen Pavilion car park.
Carla Boswell, Volunteer Coordinator at The Parks Trust, said: “The work of our volunteers is vital to ensuring Milton Keynes’ green spaces remain beautiful and inspiring places for people to visit and enjoy – we simply couldn’t do it without them!
“However, we know that there are those who would love to come and help but can’t commit to regularly volunteering, which is why we so hope they will join us for our Make a Difference Day.
“It’s a great opportunity to spend some time outdoors and enjoy the autumn season, while also helping us complete an important task before the weather gets cold.”
