The initiative, known as 'The Big Plant', saw an enthusiastic group of volunteers join Councillors Alison Jackson, Linda Maher, David Wilkinson, and Gillian Wroe in Hall Lee Bank Park on Sunday to plant approximately 680 bulbs. The council expressed gratitude to all involved for their hard work.
Several local schools, along with The Friends of Westhoughton Station and Daisy Hill Community Garden, have also accepted bulbs and committed to planting them in their respective areas. This collaborative effort aims to enhance the town's appearance for the upcoming spring season.
The council extended special thanks to volunteers Amy and her daughters Thea and Lyra, Frankie and her teenage daughters Jasmine and Cheryl, and Chris, who worked alongside his dog Etta, acknowledging their significant contribution to the planting day.
