Furniture Upcycling Workshop

Rush Community Centre was buzzing with creativity recently as participants gathered for a hands on workshop led by Marie Anne, better known as The Revamp Tramp. Her session on furniture upcycling proved both practical and inspiring, giving attendees the confidence to see old or worn pieces in a whole new light. Marie Anne shared expert tips, demonstrated techniques, and encouraged everyone to embrace upcycling as a sustainable, budget friendly way to refresh their homes. A huge thank you to her for delivering such an informative and enjoyable workshop, definitely one that left people eager to start their next project.

Good news for book lovers! The Rush Tidy Towns Little Free Library on Convent Lane has been freshly restocked and is ready for readers of all ages. Everyone is invited to stop by, browse the selection, take a book, and if you can leave one in return. These small exchanges help keep stories circulating and strengthen our shared love of reading within the community.

Let’s keep the books moving and the joy of reading growing across Rush!

Spring Seed & Plant Sharing Event

A highlight of the spring calendar returns once again, our free Community Seed and Plant Sharing Event, now in its sixth year. What began as a modest gathering has grown into one of the most well attended events hosted by Rush Tidy Towns, bringing together gardeners, growers, and curious beginners alike.
This year introduces an exciting new addition: Christine from Bird of Paradise will be giving a live demonstration on flower arranging. It’s a wonderful opportunity to learn creative techniques, pick up new plants, exchange seeds, and strengthen connections within our gardening community.

See flyer for details, and be sure to join us as we celebrate spring, sustainability, and shared green fingered enthusiasm.
