The park will be cleaned between 10am and 4pm on Saturday, November 21.

The aim is to collect litter, create and shape a path through the woodland and decorate the area to help forge and pleasant and welcoming place for the local community.

The clean-up will be carried out by a team of nine known as Team Edwards.

“In taking part in NCS, I have gained so much confidence and have developed my skills of working in a team.

“I am looking forward to helping out Hurst Grange Park because it gives me a chance to give something back to the community.”
