Today, the residents of Boston Big Local had the pleasure of surprising the volunteer gardeners at Fydell House.

For a while now the volunteers have been nursing their old petrol mower to keep it going and make the gardens at Fydell House look amazing for all to see.

When, on the grapevine, we heard of the volunteers’ peril we as a group of residents had a discussion and decided to purchase a new mower for the volunteers.

We covertly found out the requirements and it was decided to purchase an ultra modern STIHL battery powered mower.

We presented this to the shocked and surprised volunteers: Jan Dawson, Adrian Carrotte and Pete Smith.

Adrian stated that “The bigger capacity grass holder would make it easier because I would have to empty it a lot less.”

We are pleased you like it Adrian and it is of help to you all who do such a wonderful job volunteering your time and effort.


If you know of a group, charity or individual in the Boston Big Local Area who is in need of a specific item please do let us know and we will see what we can do.
