Newbold Community Garden - Mayoral planting of tree

Last week councillor Mike Holly in his last few days as mayor presented a tree to our new mayor, councillor Shakil Ahmed.

Each year a tree is planted in the mayor's ward as part of the continuation of the Queen's Green Canopy initiative to welcome the new mayor.

The tree has been planted in Newbold Community Garden run by a group of volunteers. Rochdale Boroughwide Housing initially cleared the land and now major work is planned after receiving a grant through the Greater Manchester Environment Fund with additional funding supplied via Your Trust Rochdale and the council.

We look forward to seeing this community garden grow.
