The bee swarm season has started. Yesterday a swarm arrived in #ParkHillPark & thanks to a park dog walker, & as seen in the film, the swarm was safely collected by a member of the fab #Croydon Bee Keepers Association
If you see a swarm contact the British Bee Keepers Association

I met 3 fabulous #Ukrainian kids in #ParkHillPark today: they spoke amazing English
They’re 100% football mad.
They want to play & go to games but obviously zero money.
Are their any football teams doing anything for #Croydon’s Ukrainian refugee kids? @CPFC?
