Don't forget we're meeting at 10:30 to continue at St Christopher's Jaywick. It was great fun last time. Everyone is welcome we'll be laying a path and adding waterbutts to our new wildlife area in the community garden. Bacon butties and sausages, cake, biscuit and drinks provided. #Jaywick #TransitionNetworks

Planning on planting gooseberry, red currant and herbs in the sensory garden. Wondering if the men's shed can help with bird boxes and if anyone wants to donate a bench or any plants? Mother Louise at St Christopher's is the point of contact. Donations gratefully received be that plants or time. Next working party 10 December 10am. Come join us finishing the path and doing some planting #Jaywick
