This evening 5 GG Members met at Brockhill Care home to carry out some gardening duties.
Katie and Alys met up and ran from Knaphill, I myself came straight from work, due to fasting just did not have enough energy to run. Adan and James met up at the WWF and ran along the canal with a sprint finish at the end which Adam just getting ahead of James at the finishing line.
Once we were buzzed in we headed into the outdoor garden area and carried out an inspection of what needed to be done. The patio area looked like it needed a good clan with plenty of weeds that needed pulling up. We helped ourselves to the amazing assortment of tools from the shed and got started. Adam with the broom and scraper 🧹, James with the broom Katie and Alys using brute force and pulling weeds up with their hands
James even managed to get his hands in the guttering and remove a blockage of leaves and twigs. 🌿 James also mentioned how the previous task laying bark on the park run route was mentioned by many runners last weekend and how they all noticed the difference over the weekend. 😄
As the patio area started to look take shape and look better James mentioned how he was looking forward to a lovely evening ahed with his new massage gun 😍 He was looking forward to getting them knots out of his legs and shoulders with Take That music playing in the background… 🎶 I’m sure we will hear all about it next week.
I had to leave a little early as it was almost time to open my fast and was looking forward to big meal. The rest of the group were not to far behind, the patio looked great and now all ready for some Summer BBQ’s.
Hope you all have a great evening...

WOKING GOODGYM take on brockhill carw home. Its been a while since gg have been to brockhill to help out, but last night we had a task of painting.
We ran the 3.5km each way, a little further now we have moved starting points but that doesn't put us off! Once there we got to work with a shade of lilac on the walls. Since starting with Brockhill we have managed to paint the reception area and corridors. Also helping spruce up their garden furniture and painting window and door frames, so we have seen the transformation taking place and it looks great!
It was nice to see gg member Mark back with us after a summer off with family. A GOODLUCK to gg member Lou who is taking part in the great north run next week and to myself in the redbull quicksand event.
Next week we will be gardening in a new allotment which is part of thames valley housing.
