You may have noticed over the last couple of weeks we have been a little quiet – in fact we were closed for two weeks whilst we had building works going on.

But thanks to some great community support, we were able to have some fantastic outings. So whilst we took it in turns to keep the gardens watered and weeded, the garden volunteers had a great fortnight.

Thanks to the Lapal Canal Trust for arranging our brilliant trip along the canal and for fixing the weather and to Birmingham Wildlife Conservation Park for giving us such a warm welcome.

You can find out more here about our plans for the new building here.
