Pollinator Party

A "Pollinator Party" was held at Farrington Gurney Memorial Hall on Saturday 15th July. It was an exciting free event, aiming to spread the word to children and adults alike about the importance of pollinators in our environment. There were talks about the secret lives of pollinators. Also free plants and seeds, as well as free bee and bug box kits. It was extremely well attended. Margaret Heffernan, a Professor at the University of Bath and a Farrington Gurney Parish Councillor, gave the main talk. Chelwood Bridge Rotary helped sponsor the event, as well as covering the costs of the bug box kits and providing free refreshments for the attendees.
