With grateful help from @lakesfoundation our new compost toilet arrives this week! ๐๐ป Meaning that visitors to our apiary don't have to cross their legs or 'go wild' behind the shed!
This mornings job, preparing the base with Mr Neil our great volunteer. #community#Thankyou
Well done @stationsouth in #Levenshulme#Levy. A fantastic use of a former shell of a building brought back to life by its community for the community. Now if @TamesideCouncil could allow locals in #Stalybridge to do the same for the epic Victoria Market and graceful @JohnNield6?
Restoration begins today!
We are excited to tell you that over the next 18 months this much-loved building will be transformed into a beautiful seaside attraction.
Specialist contractors are on site, and weโll keep you updated throughout the restoration

Thank you SO much to @lakesfoundation who have generously provided ยฃ500 towards our 'community compost loo' project, meaning we can extend our community work by having 'facilities' ๐ for our volunteers & visitors in #environmentallyfriendly way, #solarpower & #WaterHarvesting ๐
Another brilliant day on site with Caseyโs building company continuing to develop skills from last weekโs session.
Weโre getting some amazing feedback from the staff with the lads being both amazingly helpful and full of enthusiasm
HUGE thanks to @collins_sons for their unbelievably kind purchase of TWO potting benches for the children's poly tunnel, after we were sadly let down by @bandq_help
'The Boss' put them together today! We are so grateful for your help & support ๐๐ฅฐ #BeekeepersHour@britishbee
