28 Years of Squatting HistoryPaint and Plant Party
Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th May 2003
As part of the St Agnes Place residents' campaign to save their history and community, they are planning to re-paint the front railings (Gloss Black) and entrance recesses (White) to all the houses in the street. They aim to tidy the street up and to be proud of where they live.Jane at 64 has raised some funds from the recent filming of "The Bill" and she would like to use some of the money to buy paint for this party to happen.
They also need help with the following to bring costs down:
- Wire brushes to remove flaking paint from the railings
- Scrapers to remove flaking paint
- Old cleaning brushes or dish brushes to wash down the railings before painting
- Some buckets for washing down
- Old paint brushes
- Four stepladders to reach high into the entrance spaces
Boxes will be placed on the doorsteps of 87 and 68 to collect these items (not the stepladders!!). Please just put the stuff in there. If you would like your items given back, write your name and address on them.
Chris and Claire at 64 are looking for helpers for the flowerboxes that are being made. Are there any volunteers?? They also need to get soil and compost, any un-used flower boxes, planks of wood and plants...
The Party will be made up of teams to get the job done and volunteers are needed.
If you can help or would like further information, please contact Claire on e-mail claire_a@mail.com
