Volunteers from Team Bearwood will be out and about this weekend putting plants into the planters around the main shopping area. Any green-fingered types amongst you are welcome to join them at around 10am on Saturday – meet by the planters opposite Boots on Bearwood Road.
This is a precursor to the main floral planting of the year whereby the planters will turn in to a commemoration of the centenary of the start of the First World War with 'Plant a Poppy' toward the end of June (the date to be confirmed), where anyone can come along and plant a poppy in memory of anyone lost in that war and any conflict since.
