With the help of our hardworking pal Will Jordan, the Trustees team completed the much needed clear out of the container at the end of the track this morning.

Most of the stuff was rusted/mouldy/gross and was chucked.

The lovely memorial bench Anne Topping reminded us about in honour of Dave Scanlon was unearthed and with a bit of TLC can be moved to a nicer location near the clubhouse to be seen and used. 🫶

The damp issue will be looked at and some storage shelves etc are planned.

This should help declutter and rehouse stuff from the overflowing storage cupboard in the clubhouse gym.

Lost and found piling up again in the clubhouse.

There's also some jackets and a few pair of track spikes.

Please come and collect if yours and save on buying a replacement! 🌏
