Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

Some 10 very hardy ‘volunteers’, braved the very cold/frosty morning for today’s annual maintenance of ‘Tree Planting/Replacements’.

12 new ‘sponsored’ tree’s and 8 replacements for those which had died during the long hot summer, the group had been out watering daily the tree’s during the drought period so 8 wasn’t too bad considering.

The Whittlesey Town Council Platinum Wood is located at the far end of Yarwell Headlands and is regularly visited by many (especially dog walkers) every day.

A peaceful, quiet, safe place to walk, talk and meet other people.

Very proud that ‘we/our’ team of … ‘Independents’ are supporting Rotary again this year.
Well organised and probably as per usual start off well and drift down the scale as the
evening goes on…..
