Meet-Your-Neighbours Tidy Up Session at Medway Parklet

Nov 11, 2025 | Active Richmond, Educate Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

Over the weekend residents and volunteers came along for a meet-and-tidy session at the corner of Medway/Woodchester. A great chance to meet each other, talk about what they want in the area, and of course weed and plant to make it look fabulous!
 

If you live in this area (near Medway Bridge on the City to Sea Pathway), if you see a weed, please pick it! And we hope to plan a regular tidy section for this area, and also talk about Adventure Avenue and how to get involved as a community.

Thanks to Hayley Guglietta – Burn Bright for coming along with bark, plants and her general awesomeness as always!
