Oops, we forgot to announce here that we won an award. We won "Volunteer Group of the Year" at the County Durham Environment Awards, held on 13 November 2014. This was for "an outstanding contribution to the improvement, understanding and promotion of the quality and appearance of the environment of the Weardale countryside and the commitment of all volunteers".
You can see the award for yourself - just pop into the Black Lion in Meadhope Street. It takes pride of place on the corner shelf by the fire.
The photo below shows Yasmine, Ian and Neil receiving the award from John Robinson, chairman of Durham County Council.
