Lots of colour in Oxford Gardens. It's a lovely little spot to stroll through during this Mental Health Awareness week. I've sorted under the Southport Road sign today and it should look good in a few weeks time.
Absolutely delighted and humbled to have received our King's Award for Voluntary Service (MBE) yesterday evening. We were one of 3 groups in the Sefton area to receive the accolade. Thank you to all our volunteers and sponsors ๐
A brilliant day at Buckingham Palace. This invitation to a garden party was to recognise the positive contribution Bootle Action Group has made to the community over the last 10 years ๐ซ ๐
Back to it today ๐ช๐ป 5 volunteers made a start on weeding the flower beds in Oxford Gardens. Hundreds of Sycamore seedlings to remove ๐ซ๐ฑ but lots of laughs too.
On 2nd April 2016 our first litter pick took place on Brewster Street. So naturally we returned to the same location to do another one on 2nd April 2026. 25 sacks of litter and a few other unbaggable items. Why are some dog walkers so ๐
As well as our group litterpicks, we support members of our community who like to go solo. We provide all the equipment they need ๐Well done Julie and Elaine ๐๐ป

40 sack fulls of litter collected today. 13 volunteers. The area around Bootle Cemetery looking much more welcoming for visitors ๐๐ป
๐ณ I went to see for myself the latest disgusting fly-tipping near Bootle docks, reported by Bootle Action Group.
๐ต๏ธ The dumb dumpers left names and addresses on packagingโฆ so culprits can expect a visit from Sefton Council officers. #FightFlytipping
6 volunteers today. 15 sacks filled with litter. A great morning/afternoon doing good in the community. Then afterwards our volunteer Carol invited us to her home for some well deserved warm lunch ๐ #KAVS2025
We are delighted to finally share our good news. Our group has received Royal approval and we have been awarded a King's Award for voluntary service. Thank you to all our volunteers past, present and future #KAVS
Wow just wow. All our hard work this year has paid off, as judges award Oxford Gardens the top mark. Oxford Gardens is officially 'outstanding', and our volunteers are too ๐๐ป
