VOLUNTEERS will create a flowerbed in Consett today.
The project in Middle Street is part of the Pride in Consett North scheme run by Consett North Partnership and Groundwork West Durham.
It is working to improve unsightly areas in conjunction with Derwentside District Council.
The area in Middle Street is the first to be addressed and the partnership is planning projects on other sites.
Pride in Consett North aims to improve the awareness of local environmental issues such as litter, dog fouling and the use of open spaces.
The project has worked with local schools and community groups
