Mitzvah Day on Woodcock Hill

Oliver at Mitzvah Day

Oliver Dowden joined with a group of volunteers on the Mitzvah Day at Woodcock Hill to help maintain the popular village green. The important green field site was in need of some TLC and over the course of a busy morning much of the undergrowth was cleaned up, enhancing the natural beauty and charm of the area. 

Oliver said:

"It was great to see so many people of various faiths out on this special day (Mitzvah Day) and it has shown a terrific community spirit.

"The hard work of local campaigners, including Pat Strack and Linda Silver, to maintain and protect this charming village green has been wonderful and I will strive to protect and nurture similar areas of green space".

Defending our Countryside

One of the great pleasures of living in our part of Hertfordshire is the countryside we have right on our doorstep. I grew up enjoying the green fields around Radlett and love the space and freedom it provides. It makes our towns and villages distinct and special places to live.
