Knutsford Town Council seeks volunteers to help clear local footpath

Volunteers are sought to join the Knutsford Town Rangers and help clear a popular footpath.

Knutsford Town Council is asking for help to tidy up Sparrow Lane with the aim of removing the build-up of detritus and overgrowth which has been narrowing the path.

The Town Council is working to support active travel and accessibility for the community, and improving public footpaths helps to enhance safety, increase accessibility for wheelchairs and pushchairs and contributes to a better local environment.

Jeanette Hine, Corporate Support Manager at the Town Council said:

“Our Town Rangers tackle a number of jobs like this every week, but for some tasks, like this, a few extra pairs of hands really help”

“it’s a great opportunity to be outside, meet new people and give back to the community while making a visible difference”.

All tools and gloves will be provided, and volunteers will help remove the build-up of bramble and weeds and dig out the old dirt and leaves that have made the path harder to pass over.

Are you able to help on Thursday 11th June at 10 am?
