#shoeburyness — Public Fediverse posts

c2c Railway has officially opened the rejuvenated gardens at #Shoeburyness station, marking the completion of a four-month community project led by the Shoeburyness Station Garden Volunteers. #Southend East and #Rochford MP Bayo Alaba formally opened the gardens, praising the volunteers for creating a more welcoming gateway to the community. c2c Customer Experience Director Abu Siddeeq thanked volunteers, local residents and businesses for their support in transforming the previously neglected flowerbeds. During the event, the volunteers were presented with a commemorative plaque recognising their contribution. Volunteer Rhona Rivers said the project had been challenging, particularly during the recent hot weather, but praised the backing of the local #community. The group will continue to maintain the gardens for residents and visitors.
