🌳 Willow Tree Removal Update 🌳

Just a quick update regarding the willow tree removal.

Due to adverse weather conditions following the start of the work, along with Scheme Manager leave, the completion of the tree felling has been rescheduled and is now expected to take place on 09/06/26, subject to suitable weather conditions.

Given the size and complexity of the removal, it is important that Housing 21 staff are available on site and that conditions are safe for both the contractors and the surrounding area.

On a positive note, the tree chippings have been put to good use around the scheme, and Heywood in Bloom 2025 have also benefited from them, using the chippings to create pathways at their community allotment.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while this work is completed.

The large willow tree at the entrance has unfortunately been condemned and had to be felled. It’s believed to have been at least 40 years old, possibly even older.

After a inspection in December the trunk was found to be diseased and booked in for removal later this year but having been assessed again last Friday, it had developed a large vertical crack, meaning it was no longer safe to leave standing.

The brilliant team from Outco have been working hard all day and will be back tomorrow to finish the job.

We know this tree has been part of Corcoran Close for many years, and many of you will have watched it grow into the incredible feature it became.

Corcoran Close Social Club had a wonderful karaoke evening on Friday 24th April and raised £98. A wonderful time had by all, with lots of fantastic prizes won and the funniest and most brilliant rendition of La Bamba ever by one of the residents. A big thank you to all the residents and friends who made it a great night.

A huge thank you to CLC employees Sean, Frank, and Reece for generously giving up their own time to help improve our communal spaces 👏

Thanks to their hard work and generous donations from CLC, we’ve had tons of topsoil provided, our communal wooden furniture beautifully painted, and Sean has built an amazing planter using the wood that was kindly donated to us last year. This is going to make such a difference and will hopefully help resolve the boggy area we’ve been struggling with on the large grassed area.

In a separate area, Sean also installed the pond liner that was purchased last year for the large planter built by Wincanton volunteers, and levelled the lawn and reseeded, which is another fantastic improvement.

It’s absolutely incredible what they have done for us all — completely free and in their own time. Sean was even back at the scheme yesterday continuing to fill the planters!

A big thank you as well to those residents who have been able to get involved and lend a hand — your help is truly appreciated. We completely understand that not everyone has the physical ability to join in, but your support and encouragement means just as much 💚

They’re planning to return to finish off a few more bits, but I just want to say how truly grateful we are for everyone’s kindness, generosity, and hard work. It really means so much to us all.

Thanks to all our fundraising efforts and donations last year, we had hundreds of bulbs and seeds, these were very kindly started off up at one of our residents allotments and are now ready to plant out, we are looking for willing volunteers this Thursday and Friday to make a start in getting these in the beds, weather permitting! Even if you can only do a few, it will help. If you can spare any time to assist, please let Carolyn know.
