Slightly beyond the western bounds of Spurtleshire, but distance was no object this weekend for Broughton’s Scouts (11th Troop).
They set out to de-jungle the Edinburgh AIDS/HIV Memorial that sits by the Water of Leith below the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art.
They also gave the bench a new coat of paint, cleared the plants surrounding it, and created a ‘bug city’ from the branches and off-cuts.
Well done also to Matt @positivehelp with Nicky Jeyes, John Wasyl Hawryluk, Owen Richards and Steve Irvine.
If you’re a Broughton-based group making a positive difference to this neighbourhood or anywhere else, please tell us about it at spurtle@hotmail.co.uk and @theSpurtle and Facebook
