Bolton St James Church

Bolton Road

We have been supporting both the church and the BEES Shaping Spaces group of young people to continue with the work to create a growing area in the church grounds. Today’s focus was construction of two high raised beds that could be worked by people with mobility restrictions; either from a wheelchair, or to avoid bending. 

First we had to finish digging out the banking and level the area. The timber was collected from the timber yard (sounds easy –but choose a busy time with a trailer and it becomes fun and games) and by the end of the afternoon both beds were assembled ready to be filled.  The next task will be to construct the path around the beds and leading to the front of the church. 

Pictures from today can be seen in the gallery
