Volunteer Update and Activities: May 2026
Thank you to everyone who joined us to volunteer in the Waterloo Seafront Gardens during April.
There were 10 of us at a very windy litter pick at the Children’s Play Park, and at our 3 garden maintenance sessions we had 8,9 and 10 volunteers respectively. We worked on weeding the round bed in Adelaide Garden, giving it a good covering of bark mulch and continued our task of edging the pathways in Crescent Garden.
Thanks to all who came along to help litter picking this morning. We had 15 volunteers and cleaned round the Marina play park and a couple of the Gardens. We luckily managed to avoid rain, but it was very windy out there!
At our Wednesday session we were also joined by 5 volunteers from BDO, an accountancy firm, who made a fantastic effort and we were able to complete edging the whole of one of the pathways linking the bottom and top paths. Before and after photos below:
Big thanks to everyone who came along to our volunteer day yesterday. We had some of our regulars plus another five volunteers from BDO who took a day off accounting to come and help. We edged an entire path in Crescent Garden – it’s now about a foot wider!

Tuesday 12th – Garden Maintenance meeting at 10.00am in Crescent Garden
