PA volunteers teamed up to undertake a much needed makeover in preparation for the planting of a low maintenance front garden courtesy of Seawinds Nursery.

Smelter volunteers replace 20 year old boardwalk
For the third year in a row PA volunteers have undertaken important maintenance work on the Great South West Walk (GSWW).
With over 20,000 people visiting the walk annually, maintenance is an ongoing issue for the Friends of GSSW. Portland Aluminium’s support enables them to complete high quality maintenance work within a shorter time frame.
This year the volunteers assisted in replacing the weather beaten boardwalk, which involved securing pine boards with chains and spikes to 1m poles dug into the ground.
An appetising lunch was supplied for the hard workers courtesy of Baker’s Delight. |
