The Big Jubilee Lunch

WMS and CG Clean Down support The Big Jubilee Lunch!

WMS were thrilled when receiving a call for help from Anna Jay representing Crantock Street Community Garden and their Big Jubilee Lunch last week!

Crantock Street Community Garden (formerly a car park!) has been reclaimed by the community and has been host to numerous community events following its refurbishment!

WMS, and in no small part their sub contractor CG Clean Down, carried out some minor titillation in readiness for the Big Jubilee Lunch over the weekend.

What a fantastic cause to support and I'm sure you'll see from the pics what a great event!

Thank you for the opportunity Anna!
