SUMMARY:Maghull Green Revolution Volunteers Needed Just One Hour!
DESCRIPTION:Please can you help to give the Parkbourn Wildflower Garden its annual TLC with a quick tidy up involving some weeding and planting a Belfast sink!! \nVenue The Parkbourn Project is a little tricky to find. It is situated on the rear service road of (45) Parkbourn Square (L31 1JD off Park Lane)\, also listed on Google maps. \nTime. Meeting for one hour on Wednesday 4.6.25\, at 09:30 hours. \nTask. We will be focusing on simple but important weeding and planting a Belfast sink  (as a wildlife water feature\, courtesy of Linda and Dave) in the small outer border and path that has four layers including (1) the rear dogwood hedge developing to cover the stark railings\, (2) in front there is a row of 72 white hydrangea cuttings blossoming\, and (3) in front of this there is a row of assorted plants\, whilst the (4) daffodils and bluebells that fringe the path have now finished blossoming. Possibly\, continuing to fill in the amazing bug hotel with bamboo and twigs. \nEquipment: You will need garden gloves\, sturdy boots\, large or small garden fork and secateurs. \nMore information at www.fomd.co.uk  including: (1) Events tab for everything about the meeting and (2) Projects tab for the project background. \nThank you to Joanne\, Linda\, Jill (pictured) Colin and Frank (not pictured) on 23.5.25. Not only for the fantastic outcomes in one hour but for their good-humoured company for our first of two one-hour session to give an annual tidy up at our old and very first modest green transformation project (2018) at Maghull’s Parkbourn today. \nIn the short one-hour\, we filled a large agricultural bag from: \n\nTrimming our previously planted dogwood hedge.\nWeeded the outer border to improve the past donated shrubs.\nWeeded the woodchip access path.\n\nParkbourn Background:   \nThe Friends of Maghull District’s (FOMD) first (2018) of many local green transformations. This small area had been blighted with 20 years of antisocial and fly tipping behaviour\, was transformed into a much-visited inspiring green wildlife oasis.

SUMMARY:Can You Volunteer for Only a One Hour Session This Week to Improve Maghull?
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is welcome including businesses who offer social value days. The community woodland border is the largest in Maghull and if we can finish its annual tidy up then we can start new projects for the good of Maghull elsewhere. \nWhen. Our Next One Hour Session is on Wednesday (11.6.25) 0930 hours. \nVenue: Woodend/Bobby’s Wood (at the junction of Liverpool Road South and Northway\, next to Bumble’s Nursery) \nTask: \n\nWeeding the 50×4 m woodland border.\nTrimming wisteria tree Boulevard.\nRe-establishing the Willows into an inviting entrance archway.\nTrimming the small rockery hedge.\n\nEquipment needed: sturdy boots\, garden gloves\, kneeling pad\, hand and garden fork. \nThank You\, to Jill and Joan (pictured) and Colin and Frank who kindly undertook our previous session here in April when they undertook: \n\nweeding the border one producing a full agricultural bag for the recycling centre.\nweeded\, mulched\, watered and trimmed the 20 wisteria trees.\n\nBackground to the Woodend Project: https://www.fomd.co.uk/woodend-community-woodland-project/ \nUrgent  Crowdfunding Donations for Rowlands Dell. \nWe need to raise £8775 before October (136 days!)\, to pay for a lower connecting path (creating a circular health and wellness walk) and a huge array of much-needed woodland plants. \nTo attract potential match funding we have established a new (5.6.25) donation page (8.6.25\, £687 raised) which is organised by Sefton Council and the National crowdfunding organisation (Spacehive).

In our three-stage plan\, stage I has resulted in Maghull’s biggest ever 46-week cleanup in which FOMD have removed 266 bin bags of litter and 25 tons of debris. \nIn Stage II (completed in November)\, with the help our NHS landowner partners we successfully obtained health and wellness grant (Maghull’s largest green investment) to fund an amazing legacy array of hard landscaping installations.  These features provided accessibility for the whole community and included: accessible path\, viewing/picnic area\, sunken garden\, bins\, 10\,000 bulbs and planting at small junction points\, bug and bird boxes\, and a dry waterfall feature). \nWe are now engaging in stage three to repopulate Rowlands Dell with woodland planting and need your help. \nMany Thanks and Best Wishes\, \nFOMD \nTogether making Maghull a better place to live. \nMore information at www.fomd.co.uk including: (1) Events tab for everything about the meeting and (2) Projects tab for the project background. \nContact: admin@fomd.co.uk \n#fomdcic #Maghull #Environment \n         \n
