🌟 Volunteer of the Month 🌟

Chris has been with us for 5 months now, and we’re so grateful for all his hard work and dedication! 👏

At the moment, Chris is working hard clearing the leat by removing excess reeds while carefully leaving enough behind to protect and support our wildlife 🦆🌱

What Chris loves most about volunteering is helping to make the Mill look beautiful and welcoming for everyone. He enjoys keeping the grounds looking presentable, connecting with people, and being part of such a friendly community 😊🌿

Thank you, Chris, for everything you do — your efforts make a huge difference! 🙌💚
