A BIG thank you to @Chris4Patches, @FriendsQueslett & everyone involved with this fantastic celebration of spring & our 20th anniversary!
It was wonderful to mark this milestone together & celebrate Birmingham's precious green spaces.💚Here's to many more years of collaboration!
It was a real honour to team up with @FriendsQueslett & @_BTO @JamieHicken and lead a walk to celebrate spring & @BOSFonline’s 20th Anniversary 😎
I always celebrate with songs and the birds of Queslett Nature Reserve provided a symphony that charmed this wonderful gathering!

Done my bit for #GreatBritishSpringClean and #onemillionbags.

We've planted an orchard with @FOSwanshurst in #SwanshurstPark today. Three pear trees, a damson and a gage... on the old 'pitch and putt" site. #GrowTheVillage #Billesley
