Building and Filling Planters
The team have been out around Croydon building and filling planters. Planters help turn parks, gardens and streets into welcoming communal spaces that promote a friendly environment and a thriving, outgoing community!

World Cleanup Day
The team spent a day at Addington Hills, providing free gloves to #WorldCleanupDay2021 participants. The gloves were kindly given to The Skill Mill by Spontex UK. Spontex UK wanted to do something to support members of the community who were taking part in the annual event. We teamed up with them, and supported hundreds of individuals and community groups!
