Episode Description
Today, we're diving into the heart and soul of Shepperton with Vivienne Leighton from the Shepperton Village Conservation Group. This episode is all about community spirit and making our village shine. Vivienne shares how their mission is not just about pretty flowers, it's about keeping Shepperton vibrant and supporting our local shops, which really is the lifeblood of the community. We chat about their projects, like the new Hügel Kultur bed, and how a small group of dedicated volunteers has transformed neglected corners into beautiful spaces that everyone can enjoy. Plus, we get the scoop on their exciting plans for a big community work day on July 4th, where you can roll up your sleeves and help out! So, if you’ve ever strolled through our village and thought it looked lovely, listen in to find out how you can join the fun and make a difference.
