Young and old came together to improve their community at a volunteer event in Burnham.

Volunteers from Burnham’s Railway Bridge Task Force were joined by youngsters working towards their Duke of Edinburgh Awards on Saturday for a tidy up of the historicbridge.

Burnham Town Councillor Vanessa Bell helped facilitate the event through community Facebook page I Love Burnham.

She said: “It was fantastic and nice to see everyone coming together and we got quite a lot of work done as well.

“They collected about ten bags of overgrown plants from the area.”

“The children all came and helped and it was like young and old coming together.

“The Duke of Edinburgh participants have offered to come back and help again.”
