17 Nov 24 - Crocus planting with help from the Scouts
Southampton Rotary have once again kindly donated purple crocus bulbs as part of their Purple4Polio campaign, to end childhood polio worldwide. On 17 November, youngsters from the 29th Portswood Immaculata Scouts, with their scout leader Russ Andrews, gave up their Sunday morning to plant no less than 750 bulbs. Watch out for the shoots next spring! Very many thanks to all concerned.
