Work Parties 2025

We organise work parties every year to ensure the communal areas on the RPA site are maintained and kept in good order. This year these are planned for every two months from spring to autumn with an additional volunteers day on Thursday July 10th.

There is usually a range of jobs for all physiques, so please do come along and help. Even if you can only spare a half-hour, it all counts.

The planned dates for 2025 work parties are listed below. We usually gather outside the Seed Store café at 11:00 on the day. The one exception for 2025 is the volunteers day on Thursday 10th July when the start time is 10:00 Stout footwear and gloves always required. Tools can be provided.
