KEEN gardeners are being invited to help spruce up the Barrowfields.

Serco is staging community gardening events following flowerbeds being installed, which will be held on Thursday, May 14 between 10am and 1pm as well as on Tuesday, May 26 from 10am to 1pm.

A Serco spokesperson said: “This is an exciting opportunity to join our volunteer gardening group.

“People who are interested in attending should meet at Barrowfields, behind the middle bus stop.

“This is a community event, and all are welcome. All equipment is provided, and people do not need to come to the entire session.

“Please dress in robust footwear and clothing for gardening and the weather. Bring any drinks and food that may be needed during the session.”
