Happy birthday Moffat Close -- ‘St Ann’s projects’

Carly Williams – St Ann’s projects – celebrated their 1st birthday this month tidying up and planting new flowers & shrubs in Moffat Close, St Ann’s. It was a lovely spring day as the volunteers set to work, and all had a slice of birthday cake & refreshment. This short film is by Pardis while Richard Pearson added the sound of Clare Grogan, Happy birthday!

Flashback 4th August 2012: In St Ann’s on Saturday 4th August a team of local volunteers lead by organisers Carly Williams & Martin Summerville helped tidy up and plant new shrubs and herbs in the Moffat Close community garden. Local children joined in the activities as well as chalk drawing, while a student from Barcelona (Spain) helped out, she was Pilar Campuzano. The rest of the people in this group photo are:

Cameron Cumberpatch, Sade Moore, Logan Maguire, Shiannon Kershaw, Alex Kemp, Evonne Cornejo, Dee Kershaw, Ashleigh. Neethan Kershaw, Iona Kelly, Dominic Thompson, Eileen Thompson, Carly Williams and Martin Summerville.

Flash back 4th November 2012: St Ann’s Projects. On Saturday afternoon Carly Williams & friends attended Moffat Close Community Garden for one last time in 2012 to plant new flowers and shrubs.

The site is situated behind the Beacon pub in Blue Bell Hill Road, and lots of the plants have been been donated by a local nursery & Nottingham City Council. Carly would like to say a big “thank you” to them & everyone who has come along to help out this year.

They began work on the site in March when the land was a tip and used for drugs misuse, and after cleaning up the site, began planting and introducing willow fences.

Carly said today that they all looked forward to seeing the garden in a splash of colour next spring.

They have been given a number of old wooden sleepers from a site behind St Ann’s Church on Robin Hood Chase. They will now turn the wood into a number of benches to place around Moffat Close Community Garden early in 2013.

Meanwhile organisers of Nottingham in Bloom have invited Carly William & St Ann’s Projects to design a colourful shrub bed for the grounds of Nottingham Castle, which should be ready by next summer.

It has been a great year for Carly Williams & friends who've made a real difference improving St Ann’s for local residents.

  13. Aw, this was a really nice post. Taking the time
    and actual effort to generate a good article… but what can I say… I hesitate a whole lot and never seem to get
    nearly anything done.

  14. I hardly comment, however i did a few searching and wound up here "Happy birthday Moffat Close -- 'St Ann's projects'".
    And I do have 2 questions for you if you do not mind.
    Is it only me or does it give the impression like some of the responses look like they
    are coming from brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you
    are writing at other social sites, I would like to follow anything fresh you have to post.
    Would you make a list of the complete urls of all your communal sites like your linkedin profile,
    Facebook page or twitter feed?
