VOLUNTEERS worked hard at the Peoples Park Wildlife Area in Crediton on Saturday, March 12.

They distributed bark on the paths and carried out a small spring tidy-up in the Wildlife Area which is at the extreme eastern (Deep Lane) end of the park, next to the steps.

After eight years Yvonne Crone and Kendra Ezekiel decided to step down as co-ordinators of the Crediton Town Council run project.

Yvonne said: “We are very grateful to all the volunteers who turned up this morning to help.

“Hopefully Crediton Town Council will co-ordinate the project to keep it going.

“We thank them for the three dumpy bags of bark which will make it easier for people to walk on the paths.”
