Our #BostonAndBeyond team spent the morning at Cuckoo Land Allotments building bird boxes made by the Boston Men’s Shed
Autumn is perfect for putting them up. Many birds roost in bird boxes to keep warm over the colder months.

Our #LondonBlueChain team had a busy day digging a new pond at Nunhead Library with Arbor Projects, London!
Despite the conditions, the day was a massive success. The library now has an attractive new pond, & visitors also got to express their creativity through herp-inspired crafts.
