The Big Clear Up

Do you want to volunteer for the White House BIG CLEAR UP on Saturday and Sunday 25/26th July?

Some of the things we would like to do first are listed below:

  • Sand and paint outdoor furniture. Ideally by taking it home, sanding down and painting (paint supplied)
  • Clear garden (weeding, sweeping, some heavy lifting)
  • Pressure washing paving

There will be a small amount of heavy lifting, but mostly it will involve a good clear up. We would ask that you bring your own equipment if you can (gloves, brooms, trowels etc.).

We need to ensure that we adhere to social distancing and that we do not have too many people on site at any one time, so it is essential that we co-ordinate working groups.

The days will be split into three hour shifts:

  • Saturday 25th July, 10 a.m.- 1 p.m.
  • Saturday 25th July, 2 p.m.- 5 p.m.
  • Sunday 26th July, 2 p.m.- 5 p.m.
  • Sunday 26th July, 10 a.m.- 1 p.m.

Please let us know your availability and slot preferences here: https://bladoncommunitypub.org/volunteers-weekly and we will be in touch with confirmation of when we need you. Please only attend if you receive email confirmation from us.

If you are not available this weekend, or have skills that would be better used on other aspects of the project such as hard landscaping, plumbing, plastering, building, making soft furnishings, please don’t worry about not being able to help this weekend. Due to social distancing we may not be able to have everyone who wants to help on site for this first job but there will be more opportunities to get involved in the coming weeks.
