Ria and I met up with Ian and the Friends of Beckenham Green group to do a tidy up now that the weather has decidedly shifted for the better!

We were tasked with raking the last of the fallen leaves from last year out of some bush. Between that and a bit of weeding, it looks much clearer.

We also helped with litter picking - Ria acquired a small bottle cap collection 😀

Once again, many hands make light work. 4 good gymmers helped make up a team of 20 or so volunteers all packing and repacking Christmas food bags for the Livingwell community of Penge.

Once we’d been given the instructions (no alcohol, no meat, 2-4 toilet rolls etc) , there was no stopping us and in total over 150 bags were checked and packed, ready to be distributed next week!
