Good news, Doug and his wife Rose and I went to Ty'r Blodau to collect the conifers Doug took his trailer behind his car - we could only get 9 trees in but that is plenty. Then Vyv and Simon of the Friends met us in the Park to off load the trees and take them down to the bottom where Vyv then dug a holes for the 9 trees and so we've got them in BUT we need to keep watering them. A big thank you to Steve from Ty'r Blodau CC Swansea for arranging it and to Jeff and Jeff's helper for loading the trees into the trailer for us.

As you can see Spring is upon us and the Daffodils are in full bloom around the park.
Please feel free to email us your images from around the park and we will put them up on our flickr site
Our address is:-friendsofcoedbach@gmail.com
We are looking into obtaining some Green dog poo bins and are currently in the process of sorting this out with Swansea County Council we will keep you informed.
A few parents in the park have expressed concerns that when they are in the children's swing area their older children take their bikes onto the BMX track and they are unable to see them due to the trees being in the way of their line of sight.
We have just started to clear this away and have already made a difference.
It will take us a couple of sessions to clear it completely.

On (Friday 23/3/2012) There was a fire on the marsh side of the railway line right opposite where we had planted the trees. A FOTP member called the fire brigade and two of the Friends was on site with his camera. It is awful that the reed bed in the Marsh has been burnt especially as there are special birds down there.
There have been reports of kids hanging around those areas.
If you see any suspicious behaviour in the area please contact the police immediately
