Working in partnership with national tree charity Trees for Cities and funded by Velvet Toilet Tissue, we set about engaging the Perry Common community in the reclamation of a 'fly tip' in their local park. Our objective was to encourage the community to fight back against anti-social dumping of waste on their doorstep by getting local residents involved in helping to clear the site and plant a beautiful, traditional orchard. The orchard was and still is a roaring sucess, having transformed the area. The site is now used as a weekly meeting place for local residents.
