Very pleased to confirm that we will be holding our annual fireworks event on Friday 4th November in Hexthorpe Flatts Park. Unbelievably it will still only be £1 entry per person. 💥💥💥@centralareateam @MyDoncaster @DoncasterGSN @HexthorpePri @DoncasterRC

Thanks to all who came on our bat walk last Saturday in #Fishlake. The bats didn’t disappoint with 4 different species identified: common pipistrelle, whiskered, long-eared and a noctule seen by @IanThewildside 🦇

Thanks also to Dave Gash, @doncasterGSN and @GetDoncasterMoving!

We recommend all Friends groups get involved with their local Forum and, if you've not got one, try to set one up - they are great places to network, share resources, learn and more - there is strength in numbers 😁

@neilmarshall67 @SandallPark @DoncasterMoving @MyDoncaster @CentralAreaTeam @_BCT_ @VisitDoncaster @Doncaster_Place We were talking about bat's right?

[Doncaster Green Space Network @DoncasterGSN]

@neilmarshall67 @SandallPark @DoncasterMoving @MyDoncaster @CentralAreaTeam @_BCT_ @VisitDoncaster @Doncaster_Place In the UK they enter a state of torpor (like a sluggish prehibernation) in October/November and then enter full hibernation November/December til March.

What a great job @SandallPark Well Done guys. Looking great in those waders 👌 #volunteerchampions

You can't beat a bit of muck! Especially stinky sort. Pongy Corner 2 was in the throes of encouraging youngsters round the fence into the nature reserve. 2 sacks of rubbish cleared; enough wood for a (smelly) bonfire; dead & bloated mole. Lovely. First Aiders & Lifeguard present.

Another fabulous Fun Dog Show put on by @RSPCADRB and sponsored by https://t.co/AGVfBmmAjH. Canine FoSP'er was placed 2nd in the Best Rescue class (rescued by RSPCA). They were all winners though! A great day out for all the family.

Sponsorship opportunities still available for our community defibs.

As one of the furthest communities from an A&E department in Doncaster these defibs have proven to be vital for the people of Thorne and Moorends. Please support us in keeping them here 👇🏻

The Chalk of Fame has gone down a treat. A simple pile of chalk left on the path with a message to have fun created great interest and involvement. Well done Victoria for this brilliant idea @MyDoncaster @DoncasterGSN @CentralAreaTeam @NatFedParks @DoncasterMum @VisitDoncaster
