Hide AdEleonor Mary Bell approached the Tates of Sussex business to ask for help in improving the appearance of the ground.
This is not the first time the business has helped the community; in May they provided prizes for the neighbourhood’s oldest and youngest residents to present during aCoronation street party.
As Eleonor explains, “the street party acted as a catalyst for residents to come together as a community. In recent months they have weeded the road and are organising a picnic in the local park.”
Having sought permission from the council’s Head of City Parks, the bulb planting can go ahead on three grass area.
