At time of posting, the Friends are receiving lots of enquiries about the lack of grass cutting in the Cemetery.

We can only presume that the cutting is affected in the same way as roadside and parks are. This is probably due to staff shortages within the City grass cutting team with staff members in isolation.

Please try to be understanding and we are sure that this will be rectified as soon as is possible. Can we reiterate that Ground staff have no control over the main cutting of the grass, which is done by a grass cutting team, but everyone concerned will be trying to get the cemetery spick and span as soon as the present situation allows.
