Description

As part of Green Week, we’re hosting a community litter pick around Scholars Chase – a great way to get outdoors, meet new people, and make a visible difference in your local area.

After the litter pick, join us for refreshments at the Stoke Gifford Retirement Village, where we’ll be chatting about plans for our community garden and how you can get involved. This event is part of the retirement village’s intergenerational links programme, bringing together students, residents and community members to build connections and share ideas.
